DATA RATE SELECT REGISTER (DSR)
Microchannel applications. Other applications
can set the data rate in the DSR. The data rate
of the floppy controller is the most recent write

This register is write only. It is used to program
the data rate, amount of write precompensation,
power down status, and software reset. The

The DSR is
unaffected by a software reset. A hardware
reset will set the DSR to 02H, which
corresponds to the default precompensation
setting and 250 kbps.

BIT 0 and 1 DATA RATE SELECT
These bits control the data rate of the floppy
controller. See Table 13 for the settings
corresponding to the individual data rates. The
data rate select bits are unaffected by
a
software reset, and are set to 250 kbps after a
hardware reset.
BIT 7 SOFTWARE RESET
This active high bit has the same function as the
DOR RESET (DOR bit 2) except that this bit is
self clearing.

PRECOMPENSATION
These three bits select the value of write
precompensation that will be applied to the
WDATA output signal. Table 12 shows the
precompensation values for the combination of
these bits settings. Track 0 is the default
starting track number to start precompensation.
this starting track number can be changed by
the configure command.
