=== uIDE-16 for the PCW ===
uIDE-16 needs slightly different settings to work on a PCW. It still needs to be configured for the base address '''C8''', but there are some extra steps:
* First, check that the 8-bit addressing fix has been applied. See the build section above. If it's not been done, you will not be able to use uIDE-16 on a PCW.* Next, set '''JP2''' to '''8 bit'''.* Now, set Set '''A15-A8''' to '''1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0''' respectively. This coincides with the 6128 uIDE-16 I/O upper byte address (FE) and isn't really necessary as the setting is ignored when the card is in 8-bit address mode. But you need somewhere to keep the jumpers so they don't get lost...
* Finally, set '''A7-A3''' to '''A7=1, A6=1, A5=0, A4=0, A3=1'''.
* If you run are building uIDE-16 yourself and plan to run it in 8-bit addressing mode all the time, you can remove could skip fitting '''U2''' as it is unused in 8-bit mode.* Remember that If your uIDE-16 v0.3 boards need a couple of patches to operate in 8-bit addressing mode. See was supplied ready built, don't remove U2 as it will cause unnecessary wear on the build section aboveIC socket.
