Memory 
map at 
power 
on is in the MZ-800 
mode 
as 
in 
®, 
but 
it 
changes 
to 
the  MZ-700 
mode 
by  the 
monitor 
ROM 
when 
the 
monitor 
program 
starts. 
After 
transferring the 
CG 
data 
to 
the 
VRAM 
PCG 
area 
from 
the 
CG 
ROM  at @,  the 
memory 
map 
then returns 
to 
®. 
•  When the system 
program 
is  completed 
to 
load, 
the 
memory 
map  goes 
into 
the  MZ-700 
mode 
if 
the 
system switch (SW1)  is set 
to 
ON  side. 
If 
set 
to 
OFF 
side, 
it 
changes 
to 
the  MZ-800  mode,  then  the 
memory 
map 
as 
in  @.  During  those  changes,  all 
memory 
spaces are composed 
of 
RAM  and  isolated 
from 
ROM  and VRAM.
