The location code for an adapter consists of two pairs of digits with the format AA-BB where AA identifies the location code of the drawer containing the adapter card and BB identifies both the I/O bus and slot containing the card.
A value of 00 for the AA field means that the adapter card is located in the CPU drawer or system unit, depending on the type of system. Any other value for the AA field indicates that the card is located in an I/O expansion drawer; in which case, the value identifies the I/O bus and slot number in the CPU drawer that contains the asynchronous expansion adapter. The first digit identifies the I/O bus with O corresponding to the standard I/O bus and 1 corresponding to the optional I/O bus. The second digit identifies the slot on the indicated I/O bus.
The first digit of the BB field identifies the I/O bus containing the adapter card. If the card is in the CPU drawer or system unit, this digit will be O for the standard I/O bus or 1 for the optional I/O bus. If the card is in an I/O expansion drawer this digit is O. The second digit identifies the slot number on the indicated I/O bus.

For a graphics input adapter attached Dials/LPFKeys device, the location code format is AA-BB-CC.
The individual fields are interpreted devices do not indicate location codes follows:
Serially attached Dials/LPFKeys do not indicate location codes. This is because these devices are considered to be attached to a tty device. The tty device is specified by the user during Dials/LPFKeys definition.
