Normally, a hard reset clears all ACA conditions. I believe Gerry's intent
for a dual port system is to have a version of hard reset that only clears ACA 
conditions caused by commands received from a specific port. An ACA caused by
a command from the other port would remain in effect across this kind of hard 
reset. I don't believe this changes the definition of an ACA or a task set.
