     Refinement of the controller

    to work with HD-drives



   Here, given the scheme of the turbo mode, which provides 
higher performance than old. The new test allows for more 113000

cycles / Int.

   There is also improved
circuit switching clock VG93,
Now it should work on any Pentagon.

that remained between Z80: 6 and a resistor connecting it

applied to Z80: 6.  5. Replace the circuit VD2 + R13 in the

 6. The signal coming from the DD64: 13 (LE1) is disconnected 
from the DD62: 9 (TM9), skipping it available through the

==========================================



  Actually, the revision to switch

          clock VG93

         + Refinement of turbo-VG. "



   Here are two schemes, the first account
availability of sites in the controller, using 8MHz frequency 
(eg, PLL); second - for the controllers, such plots

no.

   Without improvements Pentagon controller
uses only 4 MHz, so if the PLL
in the circuit controller is not detected, has
meaning of such Pentagon becoming the second
scheme.



        If the PLL to 556RT4 is,

        then collect the following:

                     > / Bit7 # FF


Signal D7 - take a Z80: 13.
/ STEP - with diskovodnogo connector.


   The controller is an old signal emanating
of DD86: 6 (L 1) on the DD76: 3 (TM2) - cut off.
Instead of 8MHz to PLL signals with
D1: 6 (LA3 on completion, supra).

   Instead of quartz 8MHz set of quartz-16MHz.
If DD86 (A 1) 155 series or 555, it is recommended to replace 
it with 1533L 1. Otherwise, the generator, collected on this 
DD86 may not start. 



       If the PLL to 556RT4 no

             is going to like this:

                     > / Bit7 # FF


D7 signal we take from the Z80: 13.
/ STEP - with diskovodnogo connector.


   In the controller disconnect DD76: 4 (TM2)
from +5 V, signal is coming from the DD76: 6 cut off from the 
DD92: 3 (TM2), DD92: 11 and DD93: 2 (IE10) so that the three 
output circuits (DD92: 3, DD92: 11 and DD93: 2) were connected 
to each other. 



 Mikroshemy used in the refinement:


  D1: 1533LA3, D2: 1533TM2, D3: 1533KP11,

  D4: 1533LL1, D5: 1533TM2, D6: 1533LI1,

  D7: 1533IE7, D8: 1533TM2, D9: 1533LL1,

  D10: 1533TM2.



   Any chip, except for D1 (LA3), D8 (TM2)
and D9 (LL1) may be replaced by a similar series of 555. If the 
quartz-16MHz is not used, all the chips you can put a series of 
555. 


   As can be seen, there is already collected refinement
Turbo-VG. " If on finalizing the computer she was standing, 
then put exactly same element of TM2 is not necessary, but it 
is necessary take an existing signal (inverted

Trigger) and apply for D6: 1913 revision.


   Signal "HD / DD" rekmenduetsya apply for
diskovodny mikrik a 2nd backup pin (numbered as 4th on 
diskovodnom connector) - 5.25 "(1.2m) - the drive is

standard signal speed control
spinning (300/360 rpm), and 3.5 "
(1.44M) - The drive is usually free
contact.

   Mikrik HD / DD is located on-board engine over the hole "HD" 
in the disk (it usually glued). On one leg mikrika

is a common wire, but on the other lifted
control signal for the chip drive. Here is the second leg 
mikrika and serve signal "HD / DD".




   Attention! If connected 5.25 "(1.2M)

   When installing this revision is not on
The Pentagon, the main problem lies in the
coordination control of turbo-mode refinement to the scheme in 
a turbo machine. All the rest is done as well as on the 
Pentagon: going to completion in the controller for switching 
frequencies of 8 / 16 MHz, bit7 is added to the system 
controller port (Port # FF) and going to "turbo-SH", if

it has not. Attention should be paid
the presence in the scheme of turbo shaper
/ Wait for processing appeal to the ports.
If this site is not recommended to collect it, such as proposed
above (here assembled on IE7 and LL1).
