Data terminal ready. DTRx is an output that indicates to a modem or data set that the ACE is ready
to establish communications. It is placed in the active state by setting the DTR bit of the modem
control register. DTRx is placed in the inactive state (high) either as a result of the master reset during
loop mode operation or clearing bit 0 (DTR) of the modem control register.

I Interrupt normal. INTN operates in conjunction with bit 3 of the modem status register and affects
operation of the interrupts (INTA, INTB, INTC, and INTD) for the four universal asynchronous
receiver/transceivers (UARTs) per the following table.

OPERATION OF INTERRUPTS
Brought low or Interrupts are enabled according to the state of OUT2 (MCR bit 3). When the MCR
allowed to float bit 3 is cleared, the 3-state interrupt output of that UART is in the high-impedance
state. When the MCR bit 3 is set, the interrupt output of the UART is enabled.
Brought high Interrupts are always enabled, overriding the OUT2 enables.
