The Sinclair QL Forum

I'm not too sure about this. But I think when the QL goes busy, It expects the sender to stop immediately. If any more data arrives, you get problems. I don't know if your USB to serial adaptor has any kind of congifuration program. But if it does, look for something that stops transmission as soon ...

You might want to try lowering the baud rate to 300. So no handshaking should be needed. And at the QL end use COPY ser1 TO con

That will show you the data without SuperBASIC having to convert it to tokenized form.

Trying to recreate the the Data Print Utility is a bit of an offshoot from another project, That is to recreate the source code for FTCII. I know that I can't publicly release it as it's still classed as commercial. Your cracked version is almost certainly the demo version, as that has all the save ...

The Data Print Utility was sold separately from FTCII. I don't know if you sold this along side FTCII.

According to the Ql Wiki https://qlwiki.qlforum.co.uk/doku.php?id=qlwiki:ftcii_data_print_utility , This is a lost program. I'm tinkering with the idea of trying to recreate it, or something like it. Does anyone remember using this program. Did it just display ship data, or did it do anything fancy,...

I know I keep harping on about that solder blob on the 2nd pin in your picture. I had a quick look at the circuit diagram (issue 5). And I think that is pin 7 of the RAM chip, and that large track is most likely either ground, or 5Volts. Pin 7 is the DA1 line which goes to IC19, (which you've been l...

I don't know if these pictures of bare boards will be of any help viewtopic.php?p=24839#p24839

If you blow them up, you can just about follow the tracks.

Thanks for the feedback. The documents are an edited version of the one's I did for the Q68, (which was and edited version of the QPC2 one's), So that COLOUR_QL was something I missed. As Jan said earlier, the WIN driver's a bit limited. You can only set the WIN drive associations with the menuconfi...

Looking at the photo, Is the pin 2nd one down on the left supposed to be connected to that large piece of track. Also there are a of solder splashes that might be bridging tracks, Give them a scrub with an old tooth brush, and/or scrape them off with a small (watch makers) screwdriver. Hi Martin, I...
