sloopy Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Well remember, it was your recomendation on the soldering station, so you have to take some of the blame if I screw it up Sure, if the equipment makes a mistake, i will take a blame... but even a poor mechanic with all the best tools will break a bolt ;'P sloopy.

Marius Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Another thing I would like to see is an equate list or some technical information about the U1MB. I can not write a RTC driver for Spartados 3.x without that information. The RTC exemple on the website does not come with the Equates. I can not find what is RTC_BASE SPI_ADR SLI_Len Pretty important if you ask me If someone else already wrote a little tool that reads time/date from RTC, and put time/date in Spartados 3.x system (not SpartaDos X) that would be great too. Thanks anyway. Marius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three wires I believe for the 800XL. Unless you're supposed to connect HALT, but I didn't go looking for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candle Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 you are, but if you don't intend to use compy-shop memory expansion mode, its not needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+remowilliams Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 you are, but if you don't intend to use compy-shop memory expansion mode, its not needed Ah yes, I don't think I've actually tried that. HALT is needed for true 130XE operation in that mode? I haven't had any XE stuff fail yet in the other modes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
