Normal Floppy Mode
Normal mode. Register 3F3 contains only bits 0 and 1. When this register is read, bits 2 - 7 are a
high impedance.

For this mode, MEDIA_ID[1:0] pins are gated
into bits 6 and 7 of the 3F3 register. These two
bits are not affected by a hard or soft reset.

BIT 3-2 FLOPPY BOOT DRIVE - These bits
reflect the value of L0-CRF1. Bit 3 = L0-CRF1-
B7. Bit 2 = L0-CRF1-B6.
BIT 7 MEDIA ID 1 READ ONLY (Pin 19) (See
Table 8)
BIT 6 MEDIA ID 0 READ ONLY (Pin 20) (See

BIT 1-0 TAPE DRIVE SELECT (READ/WRITE).
Same as in Normal and Enhanced Floppy
Mode. 1.
BIT 5-4 DRIVE TYPE ID - These bits reflect two
of the bits of L0-CRF1. Which two bits these
are depends on the last drive selected in the
Digital Output Register (3F2). (See Table 10)
