8 hardware tasks

Task 0 Emulator, Wakeup request is always true.

Tasks 1, 2, 5, 8 Software. Wakeup requests are in a register; bit n can be set by doing a special function. One of these tasks is the background service task for all DMA tasks (set up next address and word count); the others remain unassigned.

Task 3 FEP service (wakeup settable by FEP)

Task 4 Low-speed devices; wakeup request from open-collector bus line.

Task 7 Not used. The task state memory for this task is available for the FEP to clobber for debugging purposes. The only way this can become the current task is by the FEP forcing it.

Tasks 8-15 DMA or I/O tasks. Assigned to devices during boot time wakeup requests come from open-collector bus lines.

=-------
Trap address interpretation:
Bit 12 is the skip bit; Bits 8-11 are the dispatch bits. Bits 0-7 are capable of incrementing.
