I have an Archive SC400 tape controller card but alas no docs so I have no
idea what some of the jumpers are for.  I can't get the thing to work with my
computer but I'm sure the problem is one of the jumpers.

The card looks something like the following with the jumpers numbered...

                                                                        __
                                                                       |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
|                                                                      |
|       [] 2                                                           |
|                              o []                                    |
|                  LED's ----> o [] 3                                  |
|                              o []                                    |
|                              o []                                    |
|                              o                                       |
|                                          [][] 5                      |
|                                                                      |
|  [] 1                              [] 4                  [] 6  [] 7  |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
                                                |_____________________|

The jumpers are labelled as follows:

1) C
2) RR
3) DD (above), Y (below), CC (below the "Y")

     HH  NN
4) KK  FF

5) A9 A7 A5 A3 (above)
    A8 A6 A4   (below)

6) IRQ (so I *DO* know what at least one of them is for)

7) 1 2 3 1 2 3 (above)
   DRQ    DACK (below)

Anybody out there know what these are for and how I should be setting them?

Thanks in advance,
  Norm.
