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:
