Overview

The PLV-5/VME processor status files in the processor status area are

different in several ways.

When floating point values are converted to integer, they are rounded

differently. 6008-LTV rounds 0.5 to the next highest integer, the
PLC-5/VME processor rounds to the nearest even integer.

CPU driver programs are affected in these ways:

The low-level protocol for how commands are given to the processor

and how command-sending errors are reported is significantly different.
However, the higher-level interfaces (e.g., the commands themselves)
are compatible.

The manner in which the VME setup interface parameters are

configured is significantly different:

In the:
