From Kirill Frolov To All 20 October 1998

├┤i All !

I am looking for any programs for setting up the /INT signal under
the subject and various recommendations will also be useful. I want
to know where exactly it should occur and what duration
it should have. How many lines from the beginning of the frame and how many measures from
the beginning of the line?

If you have an oscilloscope, then my INT method will be easier to configure. :-)
The length of the int should be in the range of 9-11 microseconds depending on
the number of clock cycles in the interrupt of this version. For Leningrad and the Pentagon
optimally ~9.5 mks. The pulse should be formed at the beginning of the frame
sync pulse.

I know this myself. I am none the better for it. In my satisfaction
instead of multicolors, I have colored squares :-( Maybe it was remade for scorp
? :-/

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is known to every 3-year-old child.
But the personnel impulse is not in place!!!
I don’t have a Pentagon, I have a Scorpio redesigned,
it has no whites and the frame is stretched to 320 lines. And the int
of course did the CI at first, so everything is wrong. At the beginning the CI
turns out a lot. I made a delay on the shift register
correctly, and in satisfiction
the colored squares are on multicolors :-/ In RAGE everything is shifted
by one familiar place. to the left.

Maybe All knows how many clock cycles there will be from the beginning of the CI to
the beginning of the paper? This is the most important information in this case.

Somewhere I had satisfaction for scorpio, but not I remember with or without colored
squares ;-)

With best wishes, Dmitry.

Hello Kirill

KF>? :-/

By the way, it seems that the problem was that Scorp, unlike the Pentagon,
changes the border along the H2 cut (it seems you need to find out for sure from Dima Lomov), while
as pent - the problem was solved instantly by hanging KP13, maybe that’s the point?

Always yours, LEO/SG.

Somewhere I had satisfaction with Scorpio, but I don’t remember with or without colored
squares ;-)

With best wishes, Dmitry.

Oooh! Maybe you can post it here or somewhere else? Otherwise I still don’t have sitisfaction
. (Or, as a last resort, tell me where to get it on the Internet).

How many clock cycles are there in an interrupt on your machine?

I’m sorry, but I probably can’t help here.

IMHO here you need to turn the one-shot and variable resistor.

But it’s somehow not like that for me, it seems to be reset. And in general here
people would hang themselves to download so much ;-)))
And I don’t know where to get it on the Internet :-(

71680 seems... EXACTLY AS SUPPOSED. 224 per line and 320 lines.
There are no whites. 3.5 MHz.

There remains one last thing that is not so easy to overcome. :-( For example, in the timing belt of older versions
the paper is shifted to the top by several lines. Perhaps something similar here. Compare
with the Pentagon number of cycles from the beginning of the interruption to the first line of the paper.
If a discrepancy emerges, you will have to struggle with the circuit for a long time.
