The "`F=16384`" indicates the fence location in memory. The value shown is the default if the fence was not specified at cold-start time. You can change this value at any time using the `MF` SPO command, but it will only take effect at the next Halt/Load. Fence values must be in the range 8184 to 28644. Lower values give more memory to the swap areas for batch and interactive user programs. Higher values give more memory to the MCP and CANDE handler program. The default value is a good one to start with.

This page has described how to set up TSMCP and CANDE after the B5500 emulator has already been cold-started with the DCMCP. It is also possible to cold-start directly to the TSMCP.

Peter Grootswagers has prepared a very nice set of instructions for cold-starting directly to TSMCP. This is available on the [http://groups.google.com/group/retro-b5500 retro-B5500 forum], dated 20 November 2013. The direct link to the post with his instructions is [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/retro-b5500/zCBSxow113M].
