-The Applesauce works best if the BX jumper is in place. This allows the controller to set the disk speed (300 rpm/360 rpm), which is crucial for formatting disks correctly. BX is //not// usually set.
+The Applesauce works best if the ''BX'' jumper is in place. This allows the controller to set the disk speed (300 rpm/360 rpm), which is crucial for writing and formatting double density disks correctly. ''BX'' does not usually come with a jumper.
+By default, the JU-475-4 has the ''DC'' jumper set, but Applesauce may prefer having the ''RDY'' jumper set instead. (It still works fine with the ''DC'' jumper set, but may be faster with ''RDY''.) This is the preferred configuration in the Alpha Microsystems manual linked below.
