output frequency and a 976.562-microsecond periodic interrupt rate. Status Register B (X'00B') Bit Function 7 Set 6 Enable periodic interrupt 5 Enable alarm interrupt 4 Enable update-ended interrupt 3 Enable square wave 2 Date mode 1 24-hour mode 0 Enable daylight-saving time Figure 2-17. Status Register B (X'00B') Bit 7 Bit 6 Bit 5 Bit 4 Bit 3 Bit 2 Bit 1 If set to 0, this bit updates the cycle, normally by advancing the count at a rate of one cycle per second. If set to 1, it immediately ends any update cycle in progress, and the program can initialize the 14 time bytes without any further updates occurring until this bit is set to 0. This is a read/write bit that allows an interrupt to occur at a rate specified by the rate and divider bits in status register A. If set to 1, this bit enables the interrupt. The system initializes this bit to 0. If set to 1, this bit enables the alarm interrupt. The system initializes this bit to 0. If set to 1, this bit enables the update-ended interrupt. The system initializes this bit to 0. If set to 1, this bit enables the square-wave frequency as set by the rate-selection bits in status register A. The system initializes this bit to 0. This bit indicates whether the binary-coded-decimal (BCD) or binary format is used for time-and-date calendar updates. If set to 1, this bit indicates the binary format. The system initializes this bit to 0. This bit indicates whether the hours byte is in 12-hour or 24-hour mode. If set to 1, this bit indicates the 24-hour mode. The system initializes this bit to 1.

Bit 7
If set to 0, this bit updates the cycle, normally by
advancing the count at a rate of one cycle per second.
If
set to 1, it immediately ends any update cycle in
progress, and the program can initialize the 14 time bytes
without any further updates occurring until this bit is set
to 0.
Bit 6
This is a read/write bit that allows an interrupt to occur at
a rate specified by the rate and divider bits in status
register A.
If set to 1, this bit enables the interrupt.
The
system initializes this bit to 0.
Bit 5
If set to 1, this bit enables the alarm interrupt.
The
system initializes this bit to 0.
Bit 4
If set to 1, this bit enables the update-ended interrupt.
The system initializes this bit to 0.
Bit 3
If set to 1, this bit enables the square-wave frequency as
set by the rate-selection bits in status register A.
The
system initializes this bit to 0.
Bit 2
This bit indicates whether the binary-coded-decimal (BCD)
or binary format is used for time-and-date calendar
updates.
If set to 1, this bit indicates the binary format.
The system initializes this bit to
0.
Bit 1
This bit indicates whether the hours byte is in 12-hour or
24-hour mode.
If set to 1, this bit indicates the 24-hour
mode.
The system initializes this bit to 1.
