Computer Control VI

Part of Panel 6 has been shown in the drawing for Panel 5.

The remainder of panel 6 is simply two wired-OR gates. a3 merges the four signals used to insert ones into the Accumulator. These are shown in Figure 15 of the Report as internal connections, but they have been assigned individual names here. My view is that all inter-panel connections should have distinct names.

The other three gates should be treated as a single 11 input OR gate. This combines the various End Pulses prior to feeding the result to the MCU to terminate the current operation.

Figure 15 of the Report shows A4 as having 5 inputs, with a sixth being added subsequently. I have found it necessary to add a further 5 inputs for those sections that were not shown on the diagrams. I have also assigned names to all of these inputs for the above reasons.
