Hi!
     I am in need of a new keyboard for my 128D.  I remember a post a while
back (a year or 2, I think) about how to wire an IBM keyboard up using certain 
chips to convert signals, etc.  If anyone out there knows how to do this, or
saved the post, could you please repost it or E-mail me?  Any help would be
appreciated.

oking for some Help with a Broken '81
 
Here's the specifics:
1-It powers up, the Red light comes on. About 1 out of 10 times the
  Self-Test/Activity light comes on.
2-No intial Click Click when powered up, does'nt matter if a disk is
  Inserted still no Click Click
3-The insides: Compared to my 3 other '81's their are some differences.
  The WD 1772 and 8520 are socketed.  As is the Kernal/Dos IC. which is
  Normal.
4-I've tried both my 128D and 64, but I can't access this '81's device #
5-I have an xtra 1772 and have swapped it. No difference.
6-My other '81's have J.Dos and so I've swapped  their Kernal/Dos IC's
  With no difference .
 
My guess is it's the 6502 because of this '81's inability to be accessed
By the serial buss. I'm not sure tho and it's not socketed. Another words
I'd hate to de-solder it/replace it and not fix it.
I'm not sure what IC actually controls the I/O / Device # ...
Does anyone out here know ???

(* wonders via subject line if the question was directed to me *)
Oh well, here goes:

  You'd probably have to write your own software to do it (shouldn't be too
hard for someone famaliar w/ the c-64/20 m/l) as long as you've got a decent
amount of memory on the Vic-20's and your program you're running doesn't
conflict.

  I'd like to say I would write it for you but don't have access to a Vic-20
(I've been thinking about making a similair program for the c-64 for a while)
for any testing... :-( 

  If you're interested in coding it yourself however I could probably give you
a pretty good idea of how the program will be.

You can simply solder the wires on top of the D shaped trace.
Doesn't take much, and it works.

You can hardwire an internal 1571 the same way a 1541 is done.
Look for two sets of traces shaped like a mirrored D with a dash
between the D's (something like (I-I) ).  By cutting the dash part,
you make your drive either 9 or 11.  By cutting both, you make it
10.  If you put a switch across the cut traces, you can then
select from 8 to 9 to 10 to 11, depending on the combination.

I believe the big sticking point with CP/M on the 64 was due to the slow
disk access.

Actually,  it was on THAT side of the Plus 4.  ;-)
 But you're right,  it was a messy situation.  Commodore had promised 
CP/M compatibility in its earliest C-64 ads.  When the thing was finally
finished,  it was virtually useless for anything other than to say
SOMEKIND of CP/M was available for the 64.  

The whole thing prompted an FTC investigation for fradulent advertising
before it was all over (or that's what was reported in the press).

I've often felt the much-better-done CP/M Plus implementation in
the C-128 was a really attempt by Commodore to atone for the ridiculous
C-64 CP/M.  By the time the C-128 was on the market,  CP/M compatibilty
was really a moot point,  just a minor marketing gimick,  being
completely overshadowed by MS-DOS. In the early '80s when the C-64 was
first introduced,  CP/M compatibilty was a much more important selling
point.

Oh, so you have an arrangement like some cable companies have for textual news.

Couldn't you just use a simple BASIC program like:

10 print chr$(147)
20 print "this is the first"
30 print "screen of information"
40 for i=1 to 6000:next
50 print chr$(147)
60 print "and this is the"
70 print "second."
80 for i=1 to 6000:next
90 goto 10

The chr$(147) causes the VIC to clear its screen before displaying the
information in the following PRINT statements, and the FOR statement
causes the VIC to pause for about six seconds (adjust this if you need).
No scrolling is necessary.

I don't know how much you know about BASIC programming, but the above
program should be simple enough for anyone to follow.

Keep on Hackin'!

Why don't you use one 128k static RAM? They'r cheap now (cheaper than 4 32k,
I think), and should save you a lot of wiring.

It's explained in the manual- the only reason to add 96 to the channel
number is to be compatible with the DOS in the older PET/CBM IEEE drives.

BTW, on the same page of the manual is the following warning:
"To avoid the remote possibility of corrupting relative file data, it is
necessary to give record pointer commands twice- once before a record is
read or written, and again immediately afterwards".  It's good advice.

Ernie,
  Since soldering to the actual connections inside the drive is both
difficult and risky, you might consider attaching the wires with
a conductive epoxy.  I know you can get the stuff at most electronic
supply distributors, and maybe even at a Radio Shack.  Only drawback is
that it may be expensive considering the small amount you need, although
I'm not sure.

The 1541 creates 6 side sectors when you create a relative file to point 
to the 664 blocks on the disk...How do the 1571 and 1581 approach 
relative files?  More side sectors?  Surely you can create a relative 
file on these higher capacity drives that will cover more than 720 
sectors...

Organization: Colonial Mutual Group

I quote from the Commodore 1571 disk drive users guide :-
Page 74
Knowing how to program a 6502 in machine language will help greatly, and you   
will also need a good memory map of the 1571. A brief 1571 map appears
below. 

         1571 Memory Map

Location            Purpose
0000-000f     Zero page work area,job queue, variables

 ....etc.....etc

I am working on a program that reads MSDOS disks and writes them to CBM format
on the one drive ... and on the one disk ... , and I do this by formatting
one side with MSDOS and the other with the Commodore. I flip between DOS and CBM
modes by poking values into the 1571's memory. The reason I do this is to avoid
disk swapping and as my program handles multiple files , I just set it cranking
and go away for half an hour (BASIC , a bit slow).

My question to the net is does anyone have a good memory map of the 1571 drive
as I need just a little more information what areas need to be reset to
continue writing to a file, open append (open4,8,4,"file,p,a") seems to screw 
up a few bytes which makes quite a bit of difference to binaries.

It doesn't have to be a great memory map just one a bit better than the manual
and that can tell me what areas of memory are used by a file open for write.

Thanks 

Neville

Why was the Plus/4 a disaster?  I have one here right beside the 128 and it
works a real treat. It's very much like a mini-128 with similar basic and all
the things the 64 left off.. programmable function keys, ML monitor etc...
I always have considered it far superior to the 64. There was (is) plenty of
software available, including an Easyscript lookalike called Script Plus. You
can plug the ROM's for this straight into the Plus/4 and call it with a
function keypress.
My one BIG regret was Compute never published a "Mapping the Plus/4"....

A few days ago, someone posted a message in comp.sys.cbm about a possible
bug in the Wrong Is Write that was at ccosun.  I uploaded the file to ccosun,
and I am not aware of any bugs in version 7 of the program.  It has 
successfully converted files between all the available types with no problems
for me.
