Pins 31–35 and 37–40 are connected to the CPU Dx lines via 200-ohm resistors. Their function is to prevent a bus conflict.

CC M2 is pulled low by resistor-diode logic when Genie ROM /CE is low.

/RESET only detects power-on reset, not reset-button reset.

Pin 30 goes to an unpopulated location for a capacitor.
