摘要:In a computer system having a plurality of subsystem boards 6,8,12 each suchsubsystem board includes a hard wired, digitally coded portion 28,38,48 to identify theparticu- larsubsystem board type. Also on each subsystem board is an annotation
segment 30,40,50 wherein a changeable code structure is provided. The coding of theannotation segments is accomplished by means of solder connection jumpers to providea predetermined code structure indicating an order of revision. A controlling compter(not shown) can interrogate each board, addressing the board code section and/or therevision status code section by means of addressing means on the boards, to read outthese codes over a system bus 16 and thereby check the nature and status of the boardsagainst e.g. a system software list.
