The NMI Status Register at I/O port 061h contains NMI source and status data as follows:
MI Status Register 61h

7 NMI
Status:
0 = No NMI from system board parity error.
1 = NMI requested, read only
6 IOCHK-
NMI:
0 = No NMI from IOCHK-
1 = IOCHK- is active (low), NMI requested, read only

IOCHK- NMI Enable/Disable:
0 = NMI from IOCHK- enabled
1 = NMI from IOCHK- disabled and cleared (R/W)
2
System Board Parity Error (PERR/SERR) NMI Enable:
0 = Parity error NMI enabled
1 = Parity error NMI disabled and cleared (R/W)
1
Speaker Data (R/W)
0
Inteval Timer 1, Counter 2 Gate Signal (R/W)
0 = Counter 2 disabled
1 = Counter 2 enabled
After the active NMI has been processed, status bits <7> or <6> are cleared by pulsing bits <2> or
<3> respectively.
