Write (ASCII/4) (Sequence No. 520 (Hex 0208))
This sequence is used when the number of Heads to be written to the Carrier is 4. Up to 48 bytes of data can
be read for each Read/Write Head.
Send Data Word Allocation (3rd Operand of PMCR(260))
Receive Data Word Allocation (4th Operand of PMCR(260))
None.
Note Write designated for ASCII is sent beginning with the smallest offset from the send data words.
