I was looking for a way to make the Excel Paper Model for the Z30 calculate the stepping points so it would be a complete model of the machine. The example shown below is for a rotor with a Ring Setting of 4, the 1 mark on the ring is set to the 4 position...
While revisiting key handler handleKeyScanCode_EE37 and back annotating scan codes into the code, I wind up with this:EE37 handleKeyScanCode_EE37: EE37 13 63 01 04 brclr bCloverKeyDown_63 1 noclover_EE3F ; true if 'clover key down' EE3B 12 61 01 C9 brset...
I have squeezed some simple instructions into a 16-byte ROM that writes 0x04 into the I/O address 0x00, and repeats (http://www.homebrew8088.com/):A: MOV AL, 04 OUT 00, AL JMP AThis is then converted into machine code (https://defuse.ca/online-x86-assembler.htm),...
In this project, instead of using a standard embedded processor and programming it to execute 3 tasks at hand (parsing HEX character stream, generating HEX character stream, and writing character stream to video RAM driving VGA), I created 3 independent...
I tried a couple of other cards and found that they have different MBR formats with no header. I noted this in a previous log. There's an offset at 0x01BE that points to the MBR. My theory is this is true for "bigger" cards. I think the reason I could...
Summary:It occurred to me that it would be useful to save some configuration in a non-volatile manner. This board and this chip does not have any conventional non-volatile storage (e.g. EE or external serial EE), but there's plenty of pages of unused...
Building a CP/M System Disk To avoid rewriting the assembler codes for ccp, bdos and cbios so that they can co-exist in the same file. I can append the i8hex files and remove the "end of file markers". To make the hex file more readable I have changed...
I'm currently working on the Python software to interface with the EC/pH/Control board and also developing the web interface. The web interface, shown below, uses webiopi. It's fairly programmer friendly and so far has been reliable. The...
Here is the plan. I plan to turn this into this And here is the design block diagram. There will be 3 sensor node and a nutrient control system. All of them is developed with ESP8266 board (either WeMos D1 mini or NodeMCU). I plan to use Blynk IoT...
The 5.21E ROM works file with the current board, but the 7.11A ROM uses a different pin for the vertical sync signal. This can be fixed, but then the 5.21E ROM results in no display. Rather than fixing the hardware (with a jumper to be changed when the...
This code is a slight update of the last one, updated:>Better Uptime Counter>LCD Shield>New Pin out Diagram>Restart Protected Calibration Details>EU and US Plug Calibrated Probe Also a quick update to the code so the calibration value will survive a...
Before I began the layout of the DDL4-CPU, I came up with an initial Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) for the design. It went through several revisions as I was designing the boards and refined the components. Here at the last minute as I am...
I also wanted to sniff the communication between the micro controller and radio IC, but couldn't get the case of the remote control open. At the next opportunity I brought the Mi-Light Wi-Fi controller with me and got that open more or less easily:Inside...
While whizzing through the code trying to scrounge verified keyboard scan codes and flags, I found some some buried treasure in the form of an undocumented test routine. It's not that exciting -- it just fills the current file with some sample...
So since the Teensy++ 2.0 bootloader is not available and I'm not feeling comfortable to learn all the bells and whistles of USB communications I was looking for other options. Googling "at90usb1287 arduino" I found this https://github.com/mattairtech/ArduinoCore-avr...
