From the preface:

'This manual describes the components that make up the low-level system software resident in the Communicator system ROM. They include Operating System (OS) routines, device drivers,menu handling functions and filing systems. These routines enable the writer of applications programs to interface to the system in a clean, well defined way. It is recommended that they be used in preference to accessing the hardware or system memory locations directly.

It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the architecture of the 65SC816 processor. Information about
this is given in the Communicator Basic Reference Manual.'
