In the EPROM binary dump you posted I see code that is doing IN and
OUT accesses to the following port locations:
IN $70
IN $71
IN $D0
IN $E3
IN $E7
OUT $71
OUT $B0
OUT $BA
OUT $BD
OUT $D1
OUT $E2
OUT $E3
OUT $E6
OUT $E7
OUT $E8
In addition there is a routine with builds an IN instruction routine
from a variable location on the fly in RAM and appears to call that in
a loop from ports $B2 through $BA
L0F26: LXI H,$F280
MVI M,$C9 ; RET instruction opcode
DCX H
MOV M,C
DCX H
MVI M,$DB ; IN instruction opcode
PCHL
L10BD: LXI H,$F2AB
MOV A,M
ANI $3F
MOV M,A
L10C4: MVI C,$B2
CALL L0F26
LXI D,$F281
L10CC: CALL L0F26
ANI $0F
CPI $0F
JNZ L10EC
LXI H,$F2AB
MOV A,M
ANI $80
JNZ L10E6
MOV A,M
ORI $80
MOV M,A
JMP L10C4
L10E6: MOV A,M
ORI $60
MOV M,A
MVI A,$0F
L10EC: STAX D
INX D
MOV A,C
INR C
CPI $BC
JNZ L10CC
RET
