CBM 8296
========

What follows was typed in by yours truely from a photocopy of an
"original". I hope I have reproduced the contents faithfully, even
though this is a bit hard with some tables. Most text is in typewriter
font, right-aligned, but some is in a proportional font and I had to
rearrange some of that text.

I left the small indications of German origin.

Text between [square brackets] is mine.

This document has been slightly html-ized and enriched with 
links to scanned images of the tables and pinouts by me.
No further changes have been done.
The listings of the add-on programs mentioned have been scanned,
OCRd and post-edited by me. I tried to make the code as correct
as possible, the line numbers and hex codes do still have quite 
some errors though.

Thanks to William M. Levak I finally got the last page of the 
8296 supplement, which describes the !E and !Q commands, but also has
some more comments.

1. Introduction The CBM 8296 is an expanded version of the CBM 8032, and is fully software compatible with the CBM 8096. Where the hardware is con- cerned, there are some amendments and additional options, since the CBM 8296 has a total of 128 k RAM. The plug arrangements are also slightly different. 2. Memory system The CBM 8296 has two RAM banks, each with 64 k bytes, designated here the main memory and the expansion memory. The main memory is activated on switch-on, and the computer reacts like a standard CBM 8032. 2.1 Memory Mapping Expansion memory can be mapped into main memory addresses $8000 through $FFFF. See Figure 2-1. Only two of the 16k expansion blocks can reside in main memory at one time. This provides an additional 32k bytes of memory to the user. Selection of the expansion blocks is by bits 2 and 3 of the expansion memory control register. Each 16k block has a 16k alternate that can be selected by bits 2 and 3 of the control register. Main memory addresses $8000 through $BFFF can only be mapped by expansion blocks 0 or 1. Main memory addresses $C000 through $FFFF can only be mapped by expansion blocks 2 or 3. - 1 -

2.2 Control Register Control of the expansion memory is through a memory control register located at address $FFF0. The memory control register provides selection of 16k-byte blocks, write protection, enabling the expansion memory, I/O peek through and screen peek through. Because the memory control register is write only, a copy of the register should be kept in the lower 32k of main memory. Figure 2-2 depicts the functions of the memory control register. The paragraphs following it describe these functions in detail. Address $FFF0 --------------------------------------------------- 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 --------------------------------------------------- | | | | | | | | | | | | Enable --+ | | | | +-- Write Protect | | | | $8000 - $BFFF | | | | I/O peek through+ | | Select +--------- Write Protect $E800-$EFFF | | 16K $C000 - $FFFF | | Block: 0 0: 2 and 0 Screen peek through ---+ | 0 1: 2 and 1 $8000-$8FFF | 1 0: 3 and 0 | 1 1: 3 and 1 Reserved ---------------------+ Figure 2-2. Expansion Memory Control Register Control Register Bit 7 - When equal to 1, enables the expansion memory. When bit 7 equal to 0, expansion memory is disabled. Bit 7 defaults to 0 on power up. Control Register Bit 6 - When equal to 1, I/O peek through is enabled. Control Register Bit 5 - When equal to 1, screen peek through is enabled. Control Register Bit 4 - Reserved. Control Register Bit 3 - When equal to 1, block 3 (16k-byte) is selected. When equal to 0, block 2 (16k-byte) is selected. Control Register Bit 2 - When equal to 1, block 1 (16k-byte) is selected. When equal to 0, block 0 (16k-byte) is selected. Control Register Bit 1 - When equal to 1, addresses $C000 through $FFFF on the /Expansion Memory Board only/ are write protected. I/O is not write protected if I/O peek through is enabled. When equal to 0, the addresses are not write protected. Control Register Bit 0 - When equal to 1, addresses $8000 through $BFFF on the /Expansion Memory Board only/ are write protected. The screen is not write protected if screen peek through is enabled. When equal to 0, the addresses are not write protected. - 3 -
2.3. Modifications to the main memory system By contrast with the CBM 8032, each address in the 64 k main memory is covered by RAM. A write command into any address (apart from I/O) causes the corresponding RAM address to be written at, and a read command reads from RAM between $0000 and $8FFF; above $9000 from the empty [EP]ROM sockets, from the ROM or from the I/O devices. RAM $0000 - $FFFF Empty socket $9000 - $AFFF ROM $B000 - $FFFF. except $E8XX I/O $E800 - $E8FF The memory system for CPU read accesses can be modified by means of the signals /RAM SEL 9, /RAM SEL A, and /RAM ON (J4, Pins 12, 13, 14) in accordance with the following table: [The first line represents the normal config. In my machine I have jumpered J4 (the expansion bus) pins 12 and 13 to ground which gives me 8K of additional RAM which is not cleared on reset. Ground pins are available in the adjecent row.] [scanned image] [/NO ROM = 1; see page 12 for more cases] +-----+--------+------------+-------------------------------------------------+ | |Control | | | | |Register| | main memory $8000 - $FFFF [UB1-UB8] | | | | | [$0000 - $7FFF is always RAM from UB1-UB8] | | |$FFF0 | | | +-----+--------+------------+-------------------------------------------------+ | | I/O |___ ___ ___ | E000 | | ___ | peek|RAM RAM RAM | E800 F000 -E7FF B000 A000 9000 8000 | | NO_ | thr.|___ ___ ___ | E900 | | ROM |CR7 CR6 |ON S.9 S.A |-E8FF -FFFF -EFFF -DFFF -AFFF -9FFF -8FFF | +-----+--------+------------+-------------------------------------------------+ | | | | | | 1 | 0 X | 1 1 1 | I/O Kernal Editor BASIC EPROM EPROM SCREEN | | | | | | | 1 | 0 X | 1 1 0 | I/O Kernal Editor BASIC RAM EPROM SCREEN | | | | | +-----+ | | 1 | 0 X | 1 0 1 | I/O Kernal Editor BASIC EPROM RAM SCREEN | | | | | +-----+ | | 1 | 0 X | 1 0 0 | I/O Kernal Editor BASIC RAM RAM SCREEN | | | | | +-----+ | | 1 | 0 X | 0 1 1 | I/O Kernal Editor RAM RAM RAM SCREEN | | | | | +------+ | | 1 | 0 X | 0 0 1 | I/O Kernal RAM RAM RAM RAM SCREEN | | | | | +------+ | | 1 | 0 1 | 0 X 0 | I/O RAM RAM RAM RAM RAM SCREEN | | | | |+----+ | | 1 | 0 0 | 0 X 0 | RAM RAM RAM RAM RAM RAM SCREEN | | | | | | +-----+--------+------------+-------------------------------------------------+ SCREEN: 2000 bytes for screen memory, and 2096 bytes of available RAM. - 4 -
2.4. User Jumper These three signals can be either fixed or programmable via user jumpers. Bits 0, 1 and 2 are used for control under program control. [In my machine these jumpers are not true jumpers. You must solder two very tiny locations on the motherboard together to close the jumpers. Also these locations are rather far apart in the midst of various other tiny traces. I opted to use J4 instead which has JU1 and JU2 effectively accessible.] Jumper Description of function _________ JU1 RAM SEL A = LOW _________ JU2 RAM SEL 9 = LOW _________ JU3 RAM SEL A to Port A0 _________ JU4 RAM SEL 9 to Port A1 ______ JU5 RAM ON to Port A2 To use the user jumpers JU3 to JU5, Pins 0, 1 and 2 of the user port must be programmed to output. DR = 59459 ($E843) DA = 59471 ($E84F) POKE DR, PEEK (DR) OR 7 The desired combination of bits (0 ... 7) can then be poked into the port register DA. N.B. When using JU3, JU4 and JU5, make sure that the user port is not written at accidentally. This can happen for instance in a number of text processing programs, which emulate a Centronics interface via the user port. ______ The signal RAM ON must be high at the start, as it is not otherwise possible to complete the POWER ON routine in the ROM. - 5 -
3. Video RAM As previously, the video RAM is at $8000 - $87CF. With the CBM 8296 however, the CRT controller has access to the full range of addresses from $8000 - $9FFF. This produces 3 further screen pages, which can be used for program menues, help lists and the like. The four screen pages can be written at any time. The operating system uses the first page only. Page turning on display is achieved by altering the VIDEO RAM start address in the CRT controller (reg. 12): POKE 59520, 12 POKE 59521, x wherein x=0 for page 1 ($8000-$87CF, switch on figure) x=4 for page 2 ($8800-$8FCF) x=8 for page 3 ($9000-$97CF) x=12 for page 4 ($9800-$9FCF) Activating the switchover text-modus and graphic-modus brings the screen page 1 back each time to display. To use pages 3 and 4, the IC socket UE10 [$9XXX] must be free, or the /RAM SEL 9 signal set at LOW. Otherwise the ROM in the UE10 trans- mits data at the same time. For CPU read access to screen pages 3 and 4, /RAM SEL 9 must again be set at LOW (see 2.). Other parameters of the screen controller should be modified by comparison with the standard operating conditions (text or graphic) only with extreme caution. The dynamic RAM memories used require a cyclical refresh, which is produced by the CRT controller. To be sure of the refresh, the CRT controller must give at least 256 symbols in an interval of 4 ms. - 6 -
4. Hardware expansions via J4, J9 4.1. Memory expansion bus J4, J9 Hardware expansions can be linked via the memory expansion bus (J4, J9). The data buffer for the expansion bus is, as with the CBM 8032, always switched in as an output. If the CPU is to read from the expansion bus, close user jumper JU6 for the range $A000 to $AFFF, and user jumper JU7 for the range $9000 to $9FFF. The ROM sockets UE10 or UE9 must of course than remain free. The expansion bus cannot be read in the range $8000 to $8FFF. [ There are also JU8 (connected through a resistor) and JU9... ] A further way of gaining access to the expansion bus is provided by the line /SEL EXP (J4, Pin 15). Low-level on this line switches the data bus buffer of the expansion bus to input on a read command, independently of the address on the CPU. Care should therefore be taken to avoid bus conflicts when using SEL EXP. Make sure that only one data source (RAM, ROM I/O or expansion bus) is activated. _______ The control like SEL EXP must be switched with a collector gate. Jumpers JU6 and JU7 may also be closed. _________ _________ If the RAM SEL 9 or RAM SEL A line is activated, the RAM is switched in to this address range, and the expansion bus is switched out. 4.2. Power supply for hardware expansions. Connectors J10 and J11 are available for this purpose. As previously, ground and +9V DC unregulated are available at J11 (0.8 A max.). J10 is modified as compared with the CBM 8032, and now connected to 8V AC (1 A max.) and ground. Not more than 1A may be taken out via J10 and J11. - 7 -
5. Programming the expansion memory bank The user may choose to write his own programs to operate the expansion memory. A sample program is included in this chapter. 5.1 I/O Handling I/O in the CBM 8032 consists of the following five devices: 1. A 6520 PIA at $E810 2. A 6520 PIA at $E820 3. A 6522 VIA at $E840 4. A CRT controller at $E880 5. Screen memory at $8000 through $87FF These five I/O devices may be accessed in two ways. The first way is to simply switch out the expansion memory and restore main memory. This may be already accomplished by the memory manager software when a CBM I/O subroutine is called. The second way (necessary when a RAM-loaded application program accesses I/O) uses the I/O peek through feature. Bit 6 of the control register enables I/O peek through. +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | NOTE | | When using the I/O peek through, ensure that the currently | | running subroutine does not reside over the top of the | | peek through. | +----------------------------------------------------------------+ Accessing screen memory is accomplished in the same way as accessing the other I/O devices. When accessed, screen memory is seen as 25 lines of 80 columns. The data is stored row-wise as sequential bytes. The CRT display circuitry cannot directly display out of the expansion RAM. A suggested memory manager function is to page whole screen-fulls of data out of the expansion RAM. - 8 -
5.2 Interrupt Processing The 6502 microprocessor is designed for a simple architecture in which the lower 32k of the address space is RAM and the upper 32k is ROM. This allows the microprocessor to fetch the starting address of the first instruction out of ROM upon reset. The result is that three hardware vectors are stored in addresses $FFFA - $FFFF. The memory manager must accomplish the following functions. 1. Ensure that there is a valid address at each ROM address in the two 16k expansion blocks that are active. The only exception is if interrupts are disabled by a SEI instruction executed before bit 7 is set to a 1. 2. To avoid being interrupted while changing a vector, execute a SEI. 3. The ROM interrupt vectors in the CBM point to routines in ROM which are not accessible when the expansion memory is selected. For that reason, the memory manager should a) set the vectors to point at a routine that switches to main memory mode, b) call the interrupt service routine, and c) restore the expansion memory mode. 5.3 Interrupt Handler Program The following sample program (Refer to Table 5-1) handles interrupt and passes control to the ROM routines for processing. The global variable MEMMAP contains the current contents of the control register. The user program must first call the INIT routine to load the 6502 interrupt vectors into the expansion RAM. After that, interrupts are pre-processed by the subroutines NMI and IRQ. Interrupts are excited by RTIP. - 9 -

64k SYSTEM DISK By using the 64k Expansion Memory Bank[*1] you have given your system a soft load capability and also expanded program work space. We have provided a disk with several programs to demonstrate these functions. [*1: Pasted over; it probably read "card" first] ADD-ON-LOAD ADD-ON-LOAD.SRC ADD-ON-MON ADD-ON-MON.SRC BASIC2.0 BASIC4.0/40 BASIC4.0/80 EXPANDED-BASIC EXP-BASIC.SRC EXPANDED-DEMO STTEST TEST1 TEST2 TEST3 TEST4 [The source to EXP-BASIC.SRC also contains the listings of EXPANDED-DEMO, STTEST and TEST1-TEST4. The BASIC* files are basically new ROM versions you could load into the expanded RAM with the ADD-ON-LOADER.] For your convenience we have recorded these programs in 8050 format on one diskette surface and in 4040 format on the flip side. Use the corresponding side for your system and make a back-up copy before use. A D D - O N - L O A D This program is a special loader which loads one of three special versions of BASIC, which we have provided on the disk, and jumps to the proper entry to execute them. These versions of BASIC reprogram the CRT controller of your 8032 to become a 40 column display. With this environment, all old 40-column programs in BASIC 2.0 and 4.0 will run on your 8032. To load and execute a version of BASIC, type the following sequence of commands: DLOAD"ADD-ON-LOAD" <return> RUN <return> Your CRT should display the following message: - 19 -
64K ADD-ON-LOADER 2-12-81 SYSTEM NAME? The cursor will be blinking for you to enter one of the following system names followed by <return> BASIC2.0 BASIC4.0/40 BASIC4.0/80 In a few moments your 8032 will print the logon message from the program you selected. B A S I C 2 . 0 This is the 40-column BASIC found in all the 3016 and 3032 business keyboard machines. It was produced by dumping the ROMs and adding the following patch to re-initialize the CRT controller: D71A EA EA [ NOP NOP ] D745 A2 04 [ LDX #4 ] D747 BD 5E D7 [ LDA $D75E,X ] D74A BC 59 D7 [ LDY $D759,X ] D74D 8C 80 E8 [ STY $E880 ] D750 8D 81 E8 [ STA $E881 ] D753 CA [ DEX ] D754 10 F1 [ BPL $D747 ] D756 4C DE E1 [ JMP $E1DE ] D759 01 02 03 07 09 D75E 14 20 28 21 07 FCD5 20 45 D7 [ JSR $D745 ] f i g u r e C-1 B A S I C 4 . 0 / 4 0 This is the 40-column BASIC found in all the 4016 and 4032 business keyboard machines.

E x p a n s i o n M e m o r y M o n i t o r P r o g r a m The expansion memory monitor source program is provided on the diskette supplied with this manual. A listing of the program is provided as an addition to this manual. To run the monitor program: 1. Load the program into the lower 32K of RAM by typing: dload "add-on-mon" <return> 2. Type: run <return> The following paragraphs describe the commands used in the expansion monitor program. The commands allow the programmer to examine or alter expansion memory, examine or alter 6502 registers, execute programs, load or save disk files and load the expansion control register. - 21 -
: Format: : Address [list of bytes] Purpose: Alter bytes in memory. Remarks: This command is automatically printed onto the CRT display preceding the address and data after execution of the display memory (M) command. To alter memory, use the screen editor to change the displayed bytes and press the <RETURN> key. The bytes are altered in the addresses specified by the expansion control register. ; Format: ;PC,IRQ,SR,AC,SR,YR,SP [2nd SR should be XR] Purpose: Loads list into 6502 registers. Remarks: The list of data following this command is loaded into the 6502 hardware registers when a G command is given. This command is automatically printed on the screen preceding the current list of data when an R command is executed. The list can be editeed and re-entered in the same manner as the alter memory command. See the R command for contents of the list. R Format: R Purpose: Displays the 6502 registers. Remarks: This command displays the contents of a list loaded into the 6502 hardware registers when execution is transferred from the monitor. A sample display follows: R <RETURN> PC IRQ SR AC XR YR SP ;0400 E262 01 00 FF FF FE The abbreviations are defined as follows: PC = program counter IRQ = interrupt vector SR = status register AC = accumulator XR = X-index register YR = Y-index register SP = stack pointer - 22 -
M Format: M Address [Address] Purpose: Displays bytes from memory Remarks: Bytes are displayed from the addresses specified by the expansion control register. If one address is specified, 8 bytes are read and displayed on the screen, starting at that address. For more than one adress, a range of bytes is displayed, but always the next even multiple of 8 bytes from the first. The STOP key stops the listing. M 0400 <RETURN> : 0400 00 00 00 AA AA AA AA AA M Format: G [Address] Purpose: Start execution. Remarks: If an address is not specified, the monitor dispatches to the location contained in the PC of the register display. If an address is specified, execution dispatches to that address. If a BRK (00) has been inserted in the user code, execution will return to the monitor and a register display given with the message "BREAK". On display, the registers are loaded with the contents of the register display. L Format: L "name", Device Purpose: Load memory Remarks: Device number must be 4 or greater for CBM disks. The starting load address is implicit in the program load file. The STOP key will break a program LOAD. S Format: S "name", Device, Address, Address Purpose: Save memory Remarks: A file name must be specified in quotation marks followed by a device number, a starting save address and an ending save address. The STOP key will break a memory save. - 23 -
@ Format: @ [disk command] Purpose: Displays disk status buffer Remarks: The command immediately followed by <RETURN> will read the disk status buffer and print its contents on the screen. The device is set at 8 and the command channel is 15. @ <RETURN> 00,ok,00,00 If a string follows the @, then that string is transmitted to device 8 channel 15 as a command. @ INITIALIZE 0 name Format: name Purpose: Load and execute file from disk Remarks: When a command cannot be matched to the list of known commands, an attempt is successful, the monitor jumos to execute it. [ some text seems missing in this sentence] * Format: * byte Purpose: Load expansion memory control register (mapper). Remarks: Puts the byte value following the command into the expansion control register. When a byte value is not specified, a zero is stored. This value restores the machine to ROM operation. E X P A N D E D - B A S I C : This program is a pseud-cache memory system for use with the 8032 and the 64k add-on memory board only. It is loaded into high memory, ($7800-$7BE0): DLOAD"EXPANDED-BASIC" It is activated by SYS 30720 This routine works nearly the same as the DOS-support program - 24 -
provided with some Commodore disk systems. It moves the top of memory for BASIC down to $7800 and resets all the variables. Its commands are implemented by using an escape character sequence detected by a tap into the CHRGET routine in BASIC's zero page. The EXPANDED-BASIC program is completely protected from normal BASIC programs--however it is vulnerable to POKE and machine code programs. Because the 8032 ROM code is not modified, it is not possible to add space directly to a BASIC program. The EXPANDED-BASIC program allows a user to store or "cache" programs and data in the expansion RAM for ultra high-speed access in overlaying programs. The following commands are available: RECALL Format: !R,0:"filename",s(u)(p),[device] Purpose: Cache a file from disk. Remarks: The file can be USR, SEQ or PRG. The device number defaults to 8. The ST variable is set in the same manner as a file OPEN for read. LOAD Format: !L,"program name" Purpose: Move data from add-on to BASIC text area. Remarks: This command clears the current program and loads the named program. Will not work from a program--only direct. OVERLAY Format: !O,"program name" Purpose: Move data from add-on to BASIC text area. Remarks: This command overlays the current program. Variables and data are preserved. [ I think that like with the normal overlaying scheme, the first-loaded program must be at least as big as all overlays used ] - 25 -
EXECUTE Format: !E,"program name" Purpose: Move data from add-on to BASIC text area. Remarks: This command clears the variables and data and loads in a new program. It is callable by a program. QUIT Format: !Q Purpose: Turn off the expanded Basic functions. Remarks: None The programs and files are placed in the expansion memory in a contiguous manner. If a wrap-around occurs the data will not fit in the first 32k bank, it will continue over into the second bank. There are a maximum of 10 file control blocks so there is a maximum of 10 files that can be stored. The expanded-BASIC program maintains the file name, start location, end location, and data pointer. The system does not know the difference between file types, so all operations can be performed on all types of files. The system has the following restrictions: When a command is used in program mode it must be preceded by a colon. This is necessary to insure proper operation within an IF THEN.
