| 0 | Enabling NextPort:$xxFF |
All bits are set to 1 upon soft reset.
The internal port decoding enables always apply.
When the expansion bus is on, the expansion port decoding (Next Registers $86-$89) enables are logically ANDed with the internal enables (Next Registers $82-$85). A zero bit indicates the internal device is disabled.
If the expansion bus is on, this allows I/O cycles for disabled internal ports to propagate to the expansion bus, otherwise corresponding I/O cycles to the expansion bus are filtered.
(note: Next registers with number higher than $7F are inaccessible from Copper code)
