Re: Q40/Q60

Hi,

I wonder if the video signal comming out of the VGA socket on thd Q60 board could be fed into a dedicated video processing circuit to changed the required sync signsls of the Q60 into the required signals for a modetn VGA monitor.

Which assume is what the OSSC does.

Re: QLTerminal v2.35 with TheOldNet WiFi v4

Hi,

If you can type AT and get OK back, the modem is connected to the computer correctly.

You can get information of the modem configuration and connections using the ATI command.

Type: ATIx where x = 0 to 3

i.e. AT0 or ATI1

The sparse manual says AT? gives list of the commands.

Re: QLTerminal v2.35 with TheOldNet WiFi v4

Hi,

Can you try switching off the local echo, with ATE0

Also try AT? for a list of the commands.

This is guesswork, as I do no have this modem.

Re: My Little Menu Launcher

Hi,

Can you not make a image file and use MDI to load from QIMSI.

If the game is too large for a MDV image, then use FDI.

Re: Serial port confusion.

Hi,

You can set the Baud rate of the serial port to the maximum, using the S*Basic BAUD command, then set the Modem Baud Rate to the maximum the modem supports and can connect from the BBS.
