====== ZRCC Monitor V0.3 Manual ======

===== Introduction =====

ZRCCMon is the monitor program for ZRCC. Once installed in track 0, sector 0xF8-0xFD of the compact flash disk, it is the program Z80 loads into RAM from 0xB400-0xBFFF immediately after reset. After the load is completed, Z80 jumps into 0xB400 to execute ZRCCMonitor.

===== ZRCCMon commands =====

ZRCCMon is a simple monitor with the following single-key commands. Except when noted, the commands may be entered in upper or lower cases. In the following description, command entered is in **bold**, the response is in //italic//

**H**\\
//help\\
G <addr> CR\\
R <track> <sector>\\
D <start addr> <end addr>\\
Z CR\\
F CR\\
T CR\\
E <addr>\\
X <options> CR\\
B <options> CR\\
C <options> CR//

**G**\\
//go to address: 0x//

Enter the 4 hexadecimal address values. Confirm the command execution with a carriage return or abort the command with other keystroke.

**R**\\
//read CFdisk track:0x//

Enter the 2 hexadecimal digits for the track number and 2 hex digits for the sector value. The content of the selected track/sector will be displayed as 512-byte data block. Press carriage return for next sector or any other key to return to command prompt.

**Z**\\
//zero memory\\
press Return to execute command//

Fill memory from 0xC000 to 0xFFFE and from 0x0 to 0xAFFF with 0x0. Press carriage return to confirm the command execution; press other key to abort the command

**F**\\
//fill memory with 0xFF\\

Fill memory from 0xC000 to 0xFFFE and from 0x0 to 0xAFFF with 0xFF. Press carriage return to confirm the command execution; press other key to abort the command

**T**\\
//test memory\\
press Return to execute command//

Test memory from 0xC000 to 0xFFFE and from 0x0 to 0xAFFF. The memory is filled with unique test patterns generated from a seed value. The seed value is changed for each iteration of the test. Each completed iteration will display an 'OK' message. Any keystroke during the test with abort the test and return to command prompt.

**E**\\
Edit memory specified with the 4 hexadecimal digits value. Exit the edit session with 'X'

//E 0000//

//0000 : FF 12 12\\
0001 : FF 23 23\\

**X**\\
//clear disk directories\\
A – drive A,\\
B – drive B:\\
C – drive C,\\
D – drive D,//

Fill the directories of the selected disk with 0xE5. This effectively erase the entire disk. The disk letter %%__%%mustu be in upper case. Confirm the command with a carriage return or abort command with any other key stroke.

**B**\\
//boot CP/M\\
