2-20. Diagnostic Status Byte (Hex 00E)

Bit

Function

7

Real-time clock power

6

Configuration record and checksum status

5

Incorrect configuration

4

Memory size mismatch

3

Hard disk controller/drive C initialization status

2

Time status indicator

1, 0

Reserved

Bit 7

When set to 1, this bit indicates that the real-time clock
has lost power.

Bit 6

When set to 1, this bit indicates that the checksum is
incorrect.

Bit 5

This bit indicates the results of a power-on check of the
equipment byte (hex 014). When set to 1, this bit
indicates that the configuration information is incorrect.

Bit 4

When set to 1, this bit indicates that the memory size
does not match the configuration information.

Bit 3

When set to 1, this bit indicates that the controller or hard
disk drive failed initialization.

Bit 2

When set to 1, this bit indicates that the time is invalid.

Bits 1, 0

These bits are reserved.
