Title: Cartridge 03-17 16k, 32k, 64k
Post by: Starej_Mraf on 2010.April.16. 10:43:46
I have 2 pieces of this cartridhe. Somewhere here it was written, that the cartridge is suitable for 32k eprom. But it works only with 16kb rom or eprom. I want to make 32k (27c256) eprom with Hi-soft pascal. Pascal is working in emulator, but not in cartrige. Where can be a problem, or is it possible to make 64k modification of cartridge and use only 32k eprom?

Thanks.

The 03-17 cartridge is originaly works with 32K EPROMs. And possible to modify for the 64K EPROMS (http://ep.homeserver.hu/Galery/Bovitmenyek/Picture/Cartridge(03-17modified)_1x64K~1.jpg). After the modification you also can use with 32K or 16K EPROMs.

Your EPROM is enought fast? (150ns or faster is recommended) If you burn other program (for example the BASIC) to same EPROM, it is working or not?

Basic, Forth and Lisp works fine in the same eprom, but only 16k versions, programmed twice in a row, 0000-3999Hex and 4000-7999Hex. Maybe its wrong version of pascal.

Maybe its wrong version of pascal.
What hapened when you try it?
Two version exist one which are starting automaticaly, and another which are start only when you call it.

If not started then check the ROM list with the HELP command. If you are in the internal Word Processor, the press F8 and type help and press enter. (in BASIC :help)

Enterprise jumps into WP, but emulator runs Pascal.
