If you don't get any other leads, I'd try this:

An access to $C5xx *probably* enables the RAM chunk at $C800-$CFFF. An
access to $CFFF would disable it.

That range is the "extended firmware space" on the Apple II. A card in
any slot is free to use it. The $CFFF protocol is the established way
that all cards relinquish use of the space, and an access to your
cards firmware space is the green-light to activate address decoding
in that area. Have a look through the firmware for a dummy access to
$CFFF - that might provide all the info you need.

Cheers,

Matt
