Hi Steve,
|
|
I made some projects like yours under OS-9 using the GUI called MGR, which is
|
|
well supported by first, seccond and thrird parties.
|
|
OS-9 is well known in the "industrial I/O area" and several drivers are
|
|
available. Since there is the GNU-C-Compiler as ANSI and C++ version available,
|
|
there is the wide range of UNIX-Sources available for OS-9.

It's for my father who has both above models, and had one in between

but can't remember what it is now, a it was stolen a while ago. I am trying to

Has anyone considered developing for CompuServe's HMI (host micro interface) to

allow graphics and such? This would really go well with a computer like the

MM/1. They're sending me information from their external development

Boisy,
|
|
|
|
I've been in contact with them off and on for a couple of years. The problem
|
|
is that they will not release specs for the HMI interface itself, and they will
|
|
not release sample source code, they will only release a compiled library of
|
|
functions for the mainstream DOS, Windows or Mac development platforms. Maybe
|
|
Microware can do something about getting OSK libraries? I didn't get anywhere
|
|
with it, and neither have others like Amiga and Atari developers, and they've
|
|
tried a lot harder than I ever did. I was looking at it strictly as a way to
|
|
make InfoXpress less prone to line noise, or changes in menus, but decided that
|
|
the effort to implement HMI was more than I really wanted to tackle (not to
|
|
mention CIS's disinterest in supporting a non standard platform). If it was
|
|
available, I'd look into using it, and I'd be happy to add my support, as a
|
|
developer, for an OSK library. Please keep me posted.

I have long suspected that the popularity of all the fancy graphics and

Perhaps the person at Compuserve in charge of releasing those specs is a recent

To: All

This might get a little long winded and the subject will bear a
|
|
narrow band of interest, but I'm going to iterate my experience
|
|
installing a SCSI Hard Drive on a Coco III and see if I can get any
|
|
comments or constructive advice.
|
|
|
|
Hard Drive: Seagate ST138N - 30 MB RLL - Verified good on a PC.
|
|
|
|
Controller: Disto HDII piggybacked on a Disto Super Controller II.
|
|
|
|
Drivers: SCSI package from Matt Thompson, freeware & registered versions.
|
|
|
|
I started Friday afternoon using the registered version of the
|
|
software which adds caching, turbo, and a few other things to the
|
|
freeware version.
|
|
|
|
Throughout the documentation, it is quite emphatically stated that to
|
|
use 512 byte sectors, the actual sectors per track should be
|
|
multiplied by two when creating a device descriptor. This was done.
|
|
Parameters used were 613 Heads, 4 cylinders, and 52 (26x2) SPT.
|
|
|
|
The low level and verify pass, which ignore the driver & descriptor,
|
|
correctly indicated a hex number which came out to about 64,000
|
|
sectors which would be 32 MB (64000*512).
|
|
|
|
Next an appropriate boot diskette was Os9gen'd containing H0 and
|
|
SCSISYS drivers. When the High level format was started, it looked
|
|
at the descriptor and indicated a hex number of twice the number of
|
|
sectors which would tell the formatter to format a 64 MB drive.
|
|
|
|
I let it run, assuming the documentation was correct and, not
|
|
surprisingly, the drive commenced a lot of head banging halfway
|
|
through the format process.
|
|
|
|
I proceeded to twidle parameters, including backing down to 26
|
|
sectors per track. This resulted in a sucessful completion of the
|
|
formatting but the drive was unreadable.
|
|
|
|
All this takes a huge amount of time, since a new boot disk must be
|
|
gen'd every time paramteres are changed.
|
|
|
|
Finally I went to bed. Saturday morning I woke up with the bright
|
|
idea that if I double the sectors per track I should reduce the
|
|
cylinder count in half.
|
|
|
|
I did this and the high level formatting went without a hitch, but I
|
|
couldn't write anything legible to the drive.
|
|
|
|
After a third cup of coffee and a stroll around the house, I
|
|
resurrected my copy of the freeware version which doesn't have all
|
|
the caching and other speedups in it.
|
|
|
|
First I tried the descriptor creation according to the docs. Double
|
|
the SPT and leave the actual cylinder count. Same thing as the night
|
|
before . . head banging when it got to the end as if it was only half
|
|
finished.
|
|
|
|
Reduce the cylinder count in half, and all went beautifully.
|
|
Formatted 64,000, 512 byte, sectors giving me 32 megs. I created the
|
|
necessary directories on the hard drive (Shell and Grfdrv in Cmds of
|
|
course, plus a DD descriptor in OS9boot on the floppy pointing to H0)
|
|
and the machine now starts the boot from the floppy, finishes from
|
|
the hard, including the commands in Startup on the hard.
|
|
|
|
Copied the rest of the operating system on the Hard Drive and I am
|
|
now running a three user system with both terminals (a PC and an old
|
|
Model III) defaulting to H0.
|
|
|
|
Picking up the pieces:
|
|
|
|
Couldn't use the registered version of Thompson's SCSI with a Disto HDII.
|
|
|
|
Contrary to the docs, I had to reduce the cylinder count if I
|
|
increased the SPT.
|
|
|
|
If anyone has waded this far through this message, I would love to
|
|
hear comments . .

Thanks, Ken. I tried voice contact with Matt (according to the
|
|
docs) but all I got was an operator's recording unable to
|
|
complete the call.
|
|
|
|
The system as it now stands isn't half bad at all. I found a
|
|
few patches to take care of interrupts and am overall quite
|
|
pleased. The combination of SCSI & 512 byte sectors plus the
|
|
capabilities of the 6809 gives me performance far superior to my
|
|
older PC's and their MFM drives. That isn't bias, it's simple
|
|
truth.
|
|
|
|
Be interesting to see how it works with Caching & Turbo in the
|
|
reg. version. Hope something happens before I get the disk
|
|
filled up <g>.
|
|
|
|
The Disto arrangement is nice. Pleasure to get rid of that
|
|
multipak. Too much space for 4 lousy buss slots.
|
|
|
|
Now, if I could figure a way to attach an Ethernet board . .

Mike,

Thanks for describing your experiences with SCSI on the CoCo3. I'm about to
|
|
embark on that journey myself :-). I have a Disto HDI, which may be fried (my
|
|
10M SASI system quit working about a month ago, and my CoCo has been down since
|
|
then) and a KenTon interface without a cable, so I haven't quite got all the
|
|
pieces together yet. I'm going to use the ST157N I took out of my MM/1. I'd
|
|
be interested in any response that you might get from Northern Xposure about
|
|
all this.
|
|
|
|
Does anyone know where I can get either a Disto HDI or a cable for a KenTon
|
|
SCSI interface?

Making a Kenton cable is easy. You need a 50 pin connector and a 34 pin
|
|
connector, as well as a strip of 34 conductor ribbon cable. connect the 34 pin
|
|
card edge connector to one end of the ribbon cable. At the other end, make a
|
|
split right in the middle of the cable, so that on one strip you have 17 wires,
|
|
and 17 on the other. attach the cable onto the far left and right sides of the
|
|
connector, leaving 16 pins in the middle with no cable. Be sure to take pin 1
|
|
into account.

Well, I finally had to send a disk controller and drive to my parents, and this
|
|
pretty much disables my remaining coco II system. As a result, I'm parting it
|
|
out:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Coco MIDI cartridge - $30 Wordpak 80 column cartridge - $20 RS-232 pak - $15
|
|
Coco II 64K - $25 Multipak - $20 80 track DS/DD drive - $15 External power
|
|
supply (12/5 vdc for disks) - $15 (HEAVY)
|
|
|
|
TONS (100's) of RS-DOS & OS9 disks (5.25 35, 40, and 80 trackers) - $10
|
|
|
|
As a garage sale special, I'll take $100 for the whole mess (add shipping).
|
|
|
|
Buyer pays shipping.
|
|
|
|
Either send mail to me here on CIS, or on the internet to plyall@netcom.com.

This agrees with the address given for Ken-Ton in the Vendors' section of the
|
|
May Chicago-Fest handbook, so is probably current. The last line Steve
|
|
provided is the phone number, BTW (716-837-9168).

|
|
Fm: David Breeding 72330,2051

To: All

Hey, gang, I have something I can't figure out. I have an OSK machine- a
|
|
System 5, and have been attempting to use "rz", from a shell started under
|
|
Sterm. I first attempted to d/l from my local BBS, and would get Timeout
|
|
errors. I could use "rz" under my coco on this BBS. The timeouts would come
|
|
rapidly, one every second, maybe. All it would do was get the header and the
|
|
timeouts would begin.
|
|
|
|
Thinking it might be some quirk with the BBS I tried to dl from Delphi. Here I
|
|
could get the file but would get a tremendous amt of Timeouts, and other
|
|
errors, even with error correction.
|
|
|
|
Now, my setup is a 2400 baud modem (Hayes Optima). /t2 was set at 9600 baud.
|
|
On a hunch, I dropped /t2 back to 4800 and went to Delphi, good error-free d/l.
|
|
Went to the BBS and a good d/l.
|
|
|
|
Now I wonder why? Does it have to do with the modem? Does this mean that "rz"
|
|
wouldn't work with a 14.4K modem at high speed? Is the timeout being garbled
|
|
here or what? Although not documented, I tried a "-t <timeout>" option on the
|
|
command line, but though seemingly changing the timeout time, it still didn't
|
|
help on the errors.

David,
|

|
|
Its possible that the modem isn't quite capable of communicating with your
|
|
system at 9600. It could also be a flow control problem, although if you're
|
|
only connecting at 2400, I don't know why 4800 would work better than 9600.
|
|
How are the modem and port configured for flow control? How big is the input
|
|
buffer on /t2? I have mine set to 2048 on my MM/1.

I need to pack a configured vs. 3.0 system with user software on a set of 3"
|
|
floppies, for manufacturing build. Anyone have any good ideas? It took a
|
|
consultant several weeks of hard labor the last time it was done, most of the
|
|
time spent reading a newspaper while waiting for a floppy to get written.
|
|
|
|
I'll provide some tips on dealing with events, signals and pipes in exchange.
|
|
Have learned a lot about the OS9 quirks, of which there are many.

Hi Steve,
|
|
there seem to be no GUI-support under psos+, neither client nor server.
|
|
psos+ development enviroment seems to need a specialist when beeing installed
|
|
(I'm only experienced on PC-based development systems).

Pete,
|
|
|
|
I've ported a couple of things from OSK to OS9000, and it looks like MicroWare
|
|
went out of their way to provide compatability between the two. Just about all,
|
|
if not all, of the OSK library calls are provided, even though the underlying
|
|
system is much more complex. I haven't had any free time lately to play much
|
|
with OS9000, but I'm impressed.
