Hello, All
Hello everyone!
I took out my old pro from the mezzanine and wanted to revive it.
Preamble: Pro was bought in 1994 in a certain office (sort of like
Tretyakov Gallery - I don’t remember anymore). Previously, he had a color monitor attached to him
Electronics VTC32, but it, along with cords and power supplies, is for Speccy and
The drive was stolen from the dacha. Along with them, about 200 floppy disks with
software, games, music and CP/M. A pro at one time used it at 100 - and
Pascaled in CP/M, and played and wrote music in ST. Covox soldered to it... Eeeeh,
it was a while! Pro two-board, I don’t remember the memory - like 512k, versions on
There are no boards, only the Profi inscription and that’s it. The case is black, like from a BKshki, the keys
cursors are not placed separately.
Now the actual questions:
Where can I get a power supply for it? There used to be something like this - a black square box
15x15 centimeters, the top edge on the front side is beveled. I understand that he
gave both 5 and 12V. Accordingly, I am interested in the pinout of the power connector.
On the back of the pro there are two connectors 5 and 7 pins with the inscriptions TV and DTV. To one
the monitor was connected, but the second one - I don’t remember, maybe it was a joystick... Accordingly, not
Can anyone tell me their pinout? If I connect RGB+sync and ground to RCA
TV input, I will get a B&W picture without grayscale or normal B&W
a picture?
Does Covox for pros play only from CP/M or from nature-speccy mode? Kovoxplugs into the interface slot on the top board. I only drove it at one time
from CP/M - there was a certain program with a graph interface a la Windows, what kind of program? Twisted
stm`ki.
There is a 5.25 Teac 720kb disk drive, which at one time was just from this pro. Question,
Is it possible to burn floppy disks for pros on a 5.25 1.2mb PC drive? And what a prog
it's better to do this.
Where can I download DCU?
P.S. ZX-VGA was never made?

spl> As I understand it, he gave both 5 and 12V.
If there are 3 pros, then only 5v is possible. For VG there is a converter there (at least
at least for me) 5->12

It’s possible, but it’s better to find an AT block at the nearest barracks or trash heap! If it
free from any coolers, then it will turn out to be quite small.

CHR> You can, but it’s better to find an AT block at the nearest brahol or trash heap!
What's the difference? Why is AT better?

It's better because it's less powerful :)

And the shutdown is simple, compared to ATX.

Hello RSV
RSV> And shutdown is simple, compared to ATX.
A switch and two wires to the front panel and nothing complicated.
If the unit is inside the case, the wire to the switch can be laid thin and not
pull the four-wire wire through the entire body (and there will be less interference from it).

It’s better to insert 720 and write on it.
