; M7PX-1.ASM -- Epson PX-8 overlay file for MDM7xx. 10/24/84 ; ; ; This overlay file supports the EPSON PX-8 "Geneva" microcomputer. ;It was derived from the M7VT-2 file that supports the DEC VT180, ;Rainbow and DECmate II computers with CP/M. ; ; It uses the RS232c port of the Epson PX-8. Baud-rates must be set ;prior to using the program with the vendor-supplied "CONFIG.COM" ;program. Since the RS-232C port is I/O-wise Reader/Punch, it uses ;the BDOS calls to those devices. ; ; To test for COMM-status, it uses I/O byte redirection in conjunction ;with a direct BIOS-CONSTAT call. ; ; This technique, although a little bit slower than direct port I/O ;using Interrupt on INPUT, is general enough to be system independent. ;It may be used on most microcomputers once the I/O byte is decoded. ; ; Many thanks for this technique to: ; ; - B. Eiben DEC Large System Marketing Marlboro Mass ; ; How to get it onto your EPSON PX-8 ; ; The vendor-supplied "TERM.COM" program will allow for ASCII text ;file transfer without any error checking. I had a marked degree of ;success in getting stuff onto the EPSON PX-8 computer by first changing ;the .COM files into the INTEL HEX format using UNLOAD.COM from the ;CP/M user group disk xx. I then used MODEM7 to send the INTEL HEX ;format file to the Epson PX-8 from my machine. Since the screen display ;on the PX-8 is a little slower than 1200 baud, and since TERM wants to ;display all received characters, insert a 200 millisecond delay after ;each carriage return on the sending machine. Once the .HEX file was ;sent to the EPSON, I used the LOAD.COM (supplied with the EPSON PF-10 ;floppy drive) to reconstitute the .COM file. ; ; According to the information in the manuals for the Epson PX-8, the ;UART is described as the 82C51. I was unable to find the port addresses ;in any of the documentation that I had, and SURVEY showed me 111 active ;ports. If you wish to set up a fancier version with baud rate setting ;etc. built in, it would seem that the place to start might be the Datapoint, ;NorthStar, Vector, or Intertec overlays as those use the 8251 UART. ; ; Hope you enjoy it! ; ; Paul M.

There are a ; number of options that you can use to configure the program to ; suit your taste. This file places particular emphasis on using ; an external modem that does not match one of the other special ; overlays. You would use the normal CP/M "CONFIG.COM" program to ; set the RS-232C port to whatever baud rate you would normally use ; such as 300 or 1200, etc.) ; ; You could look at other overlay files to see how the GOODBYE ; and/or SETUPR areas are handled. You could then adapt one of ; those, if appropriate, for your equipment in this overlay. Some ; examples: ; ; "DP" Datapoint 1560 overlay using 8251 I/O and CTC timers for ; setting baud rates ; "H8" Heath H89 overlay for 8250 I/O and programmable baud rates ; "HZ" Zenith 120 overlay for 2661B initialization and baud rates ; "XE" Xerox 820II overlay for Z80-SIO intialization, etc. ; ; Edit this file for your preferences then follow the "TO USE:" ; example shown below. ; ; TO USE: First edit this file filling in answers for your own ; equipment. Assemble with ASM.COM or equivalent ; assembler.
