Function
Reads and writes every RK611 register.
Tests the interrupt mechanism.
Tests the SILO loading logic. (Note: No drive is
required for the execution of this program.)
Tests the loading of drive bus messages by executing
Class A commands. Some Part 1 tests execute
commands that are partially maintenance mode
and partially at normal speed in order to "fool" the
controller and force errors (no drive is required).
Tests the loading of the drive bus message shift register
for Class B commands.
Tests index and sector pulse detection.
Tests SILO and NPR transfers from memory in 16and
I8-bit mode.
Tests nonexistent memory and Unibus parity error
detection.
Tests Read and Write MFM loopback.
Tests Class B instruction errors (no drive is required).
Tests loading of drive bus message shift registers
for Class C commands.
Tests header generation for search operations.
Tests write data NPR transfers to SILO.
Tests header recognition.
Tests cylinder, track, and sector increment after
successful header search.
Tests detection of all header-type errors.
Tests ECC generation and writing.
Tests partial sector write (zero fill).
Tests 18-bit format ECC generation and data write
(no drive is required).
