Ed. The slot 1-8 depictions are probably all
hosed up.
Slot 5 AT-Coprocessor slot
The IBM RT 6150 and 6151 system
units use ISA (AT) style I/O slots, however slot 5 on the 6151 and slot
8 on the 6150 are unique to the RT. Most cards that do not use memory refresh,
or DMA channel 7 will have no problem with that slot. Bus timings
for all the RT bus slots may be slightly different from an AT, as I/O accesses
are not driven by the processor directly, but are routed via a special
bus processor in the planar, called the IOCC.
The 8th slot in the 6150 RT (5th
slot for 6150 only) have three signals different from the normal
PC/AT assignments.
Pin Standard CO-proc slot usage My notes..
B19 REFRESH + SPK DRV (Wire or'd to speaker control)
D14 DACK 7 - DACK 8 DMA channel is reassigned..
D15 DRQ 7 + DRQ 8 .. ditto
The PC XT mono/printer adapter, is ONLY supported
in slot 3 in the 6150 tower, or ONLY in slot 1 in the 6151 desktop. (I'm
not sure why this slot 3 restriction is here, what's wrong with slot 6?
Timing? - MW)
