Подача сигналов на 6 и 7 выводы разъема EGA-монитора зависит от того, имеет лиThis monitor can be switched to CGA mode. I advise you to take all signals directly but where do they come from (for example, for me, R, G, B and I - from KP11, and frames and lines - from TM2). If the screen is shifted left and right, and the under- adjusting the monitor does not help, invert Write lowercase pulses. It is better to pass personnel impulses through buffer, because on some monitor models they shrink strongly, and on some models All computers are tied to interrupts - mi.

PS. Personally, I _sincerely_ advise everyone to look for TV monitors from Commodore - no problems at all - one continuous rulez! (I’m sitting on this now - I’m head over heels happy;) Happy.

From Kharko Pavel To All 21 February 2006

Hello, All Folks, how to connect an EGA monetizer to the Spectrum?

From Chunin Roman To All 22 February 2006

Hello, 80xx 80x> People, how to connect an EGA monetizer to the Spectrum? I recommend using the search! This is a repeated "accordion". For example: http://zx.pk.ru/showthread.php?t=1773&highlight=EGA

From Kharko Pavel To All 22 February 2006

Hello, CHRV Sorry for my stupid question, I'm a beginner in this matter. I was given 2 interesting devices: BYTE with a rubber keyboard and Slavutich Kyiv production, but no money. What about this good stuff?

From Chunin Roman To All 22 February 2006

Hello, 80xx 80x> Sorry for my stupid question, I'm a beginner in this business. I was given 2 80x> interesting devices: BYTE with a rubber keyboard and Slavutich Kyiv 80x> production, but no money. What about this good stuff? It depends on what the tasks are and what tools you have. You can look for diagrams (for example, ask Conan).

From Andreas Kaiser To All 22 February 2006

Hello, 80xx 80x> Tell me, is it suitable for the Spectrum "video monitor Electronics 80x> 32VTTS202". On the back panel it has the same connector as on mine 80x> SLAVUTICH Will do. It would just be a good idea to check the pinouts of the connectors. I remember on mine Synthese-M had to be re-soldered.

From Konstantin Sviridov To All 22 February 2006

Hello, CHRV CHR> Start by studying the circuits; Byte's circuit seems to have already been run through here. There may be confusion with the names: (01) these are Belarusian clones, very famous and built into the case with light gray plastic keyboard. is a completely different clone, produced by the Dniester plant (Bendery), in black case, with rubber keyboard. His diagram has not yet been found. HO! Through the efforts of Vlad Semchenko (aka Spensor), the clone circuit was restored ["http://zx.pk.ru/showpost.php?p=38380&postcount=399"] (Sevastopol Electromechanical Plant). Judging by the photo of the BYTE board, it is a simplified version of , without SECAM and HF encoder modulator. Therefore, the circuit (and most likely the pinout of the connectors, with the exception of HF) and the connection of Ts are identical.

Hello, 80xx Tell me, is it suitable for the Spectrum "video monitor Electronics 32VTC202". On the back the panel has the same connector as on my SLAVUTICH

From Kharko Pavel To All 22 February 2006

Hello, CHRV It’s interesting to deal with Spectrum-compatible machines, Spectrum seems to be simple the car has a lot of capabilities, so I’m interested in going deeper, otherwise I'm tired of ordinary pussies, they're kind of boring. I apologize in advance for the stupid ones questions, I'm a beginner :confused:

From Chunin Roman To All 22 February 2006

Hello, 80xx 80x> Interesting to deal with Spectrum-compatible machines, Spectrum 80x> it seems like a simple machine but it has wide capabilities, that’s what I want 80x> It’s interesting to dig deeper, otherwise I’m tired of ordinary pussies, they’re boring 80x> some.

From Kharko Pavel To All 22 February 2006

Hello Conan Thank you all very much for your help, I’ll look into it, this is a very interesting technique

From Andreas Kaiser To All 24 February 2006

Hello Conan Con> this is a completely different clone, produced by the plant ( Con> Bender), in a black case, with a rubber keyboard. His schemes are still Con> no results found. Con> Picture: http://www.homecomputer.de/images/wanted/easteurope/Byte_2.jpg Is this him? Photo taken from the link that flew here http://www.homecomputer.de/pages/easteurope_ussr.html. By the way, it should be there Capture photos for posterity. It’s a shame that we don’t have any of our own!

From Kharko Pavel To All 24 February 2006

Hello Conan Dear Conan, I’ll try to take a photo of my device this evening and post it photo

From Konstantin Sviridov To All 24 February 2006

Hello icebear ice> Is this him? Andreas, the photo above shows a computer with a regular keyboard. Judging by the description 80xx (and others), its "BYTE" has rubber. Possibly in the picture from German website third option "BYTE" (or just a homemade machine). P.S. A photo of "BYTE" (the one from the respected 80xx) would be very useful.

From Kharko Pavel To All 25 February 2006

Hello, 80xx Dear Conan, I’m posting pictures as promised, one of these days I’ll take pictures of three machines. Tell me if you have a circuit diagram for the monitor "Electronics 32 VTC 202" or Tell me where I can get this circuit, I got the monitor and connect my own speck I can’t, they have different socket pinouts. Thanks in advance File: SLAVUTICH.JPG http://zx.pk.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=2660 File: BYTE.JPG http://zx.pk.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=2661

Thanks in advance Oh well, we don’t use search ;). Look here: http://zx.pk.ru/showthread.php?t=178

From Andreas Kaiser To All 27 February 2006

Hello, 80xx 80x> Dear Conan, I’m posting pictures as promised, I’ll take pictures one of these days 80x> three machines However, the Germans (see link above) also have such a photograph, but only this one the "normal" (in terms of size) version is not available. So OH! :)

From Vlad Semchenko To All 27 February 2006

Hello icebear 80x> I’m posting pictures as promised, one of these days I’ll take pictures of three cars. Is it possible to provide a photo of the "BYTE" board? It is also possible in low resolution.

From Kharko Pavel To All 1 March 2006

Hello spensor Dear Spensor, at your request, I am posting a photo of the BYTE board File: BYTE.JPG http://zx.pk.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=2716

From Alexander Yudin To All 2 March 2006

Hello, 80xx 2Spensor: On that German site it is said that “Sail” displays a splash screen - "Didaktik Skalica". Is that so?

From Alexander Yudin To All 2 March 2006

Hello Conan Con> or just a homemade machine It doesn’t look like a home-made one. In the corners of the body, shrinkage is clearly visible in the places of the posts for fastening housing halves.

From Alexander Yudin To All 2 March 2006

Hello icebear ice> Is this him? Hmm, I wonder what kind of BYTE variant this is?

From Konstantin Sviridov To All 2 March 2006

Hello Costa ice> However, the Germans (see link above) also have such a photograph, but here ice> only its "normal" (in terms of size) version is not available. So ice> OH! It turned out that BYTE has a regular keyboard made in Moldova, and the one that with rubber Ts Ukrainian. Cos> Doesn't look like a home-made one. In the corners of the body, shrinkage is clearly visible in places Cos> posts for fastening the body halves. It’s just the case and keyboard that look homemade. Similar constructs (with poorly stamped) were sold on radio markets. But a photograph was discovered (poor quality), where such a BYTE is shown complete with typographical instructions and a factory power supply (the size of a computer). What can you use? draw a preliminary conclusion that this is the variant of the same name. Shed light on it the origin could be a photograph of the board.
