ABSTRACT:
A data processing system includes a cathode ray tube (CRT) display subsystem and a floppy disk subsystem. The logic of both systems are verified by generating and transferring a fixed format stream of data bits from the CRT display subsystem to the floppy disk subsystem in modified frequency modulation (MFM) mode and checking the information received by the floppy disk subsystem against the original information presented to the CRT display subsystem.
