7.3 CONTROL INTERFACE
A typical control mode application
is
illustrated in Figure 7.0-3. Suppose an industrial process
is
to
be
monitored.
The occurrence
of
any abnormal operating condition
is
to
be reported to a Z-80A-CPU based control system. The
process control and status word has the following format:

The PIO may be used
as
follows. First Port A
is
set for Mode 3 operation by writing the following control word to Port
A.
X X
Whenever Mode 3
is
selected, the next control word sent to the
port
must be an 1/0 select word. In this example
we
wish to select
port
data lines
AS
, A3 and
AO
as
inputs and
so
the following control word
is
written:
Do
0 0
0 0 0
Next the desired interrupt vector must be loaded (refer to the CPU manual for details);
