ZX-PC LINK

Hello All! Congratulate me: the subject is working! Moreover, it took me to connect and debugging for about a week and a half. But I’m still happy: as I understand it, I’m the second person (after MAS and FK0), who made such a link. True, the software had to be corrected awesome, I had to dig up all the sources, later it turned out that it would work Together, a written executable and a driver for MMD in principle could not - protocols completely different. I have no idea how this works for MAC :) Nevertheless I made it simpler: I wrote my own driver for MMD (tnx to FK0 for the help!). Now there is a minor problem: the MAS software seems to have been written for MMD 4.00, so that MMD 2.20 does not understand commands from the PC at all. Are there protocols too? different??? Either move to 4.00, or fix it further. In general, I'm tired of it. A It’s still nice: the files fly back and forth :) Vega/ex-Style Group.

How is it y VS> MAC is working - I have no idea :) The PC software version should be 2.50, the MMD driver version should be 1.30. I think I gave you an older driver. Well, I forgot that I don’t keep the driver sources in the emulsion, and in a separate directory... Sclerosis... remember! ;))) Alexand

I figured it out: the fact is that 2.20 (or, most likely, the driver) is not switches automatically to 4th speed (link). So even if it goes with the PC file transfer command, then Speck tries to respond with xtr. So far I have set By default in 2.20 the speed in the terminal is -PC-, I will correct the code later. Here are a couple of notes for correction: 1. In the help in zx-link #3 it is indicated that the F4 key is hobet, and F5 is erase. On in fact, it's the other way around. It is necessary to fix either the help or the keys. 2. In help #2 there is a wonderful line: /?1 /?2 /?2 first / second / third help page.^^^ How's that? :))) AM> Aleksandr Vega/ex-Style Group.
