The system defaults to AUX=1 and PRN=1 (that is 0 in the internal variables). If the high speed bypass was not enabled, the assigment can be changed anytime later by updating these bytes, e.g. by a future issue of the MODE utility. If the highspeed bypass has been enabled, changes have no effect. The LPT4 setting (or corresponding value 3) is valid for DR-OpenDOS 7.02 and DR-DOS 7.02, but due to a bug introduced with the partial removal of the LPT4: device, it must not be used under DR-DOS 7.03. The address 0070h:016Ch is only valid for DR-OpenDOS 7.02 up to DR-DOS 7.03 (BDOS 73h), and will most probably change with future releases of DR-DOS! These bytes are local for each task running.
