Is there a way to have the ROM disabled after an IN from port FF? I'd like to keep my AD similar to my 8800c which allows this.
If it doesn't have a way to do this would it be possible to add it?

The MITS Turnkey board provides that feature and that is the board the AD emulates to provide that capability. Martin’s 2SIOJP also implements that feature along with several other of the Turnkey board functions.

Also, since you have a front panel machine, you should turn off the “Sense Switch Enable” switch and remove the MWRITE jumper. I can’t see your reset/POC jumpers clearly to see if that is correct. Hopefully you’ve got a local copy of the manual for the board you can refer to to see what else may need to change. It’s a very configurable board. Right now the manual is missing from Martin’s folder on DeRamp.com.
