 +
* AS9 was used to assemble the BASIC listing
 +
* Grant wrote a serial handler to control the text I/O, along with suitable Control-C break handling
 +
* Includes commands from the "Extended" BASIC ROM (from the "Extended BASIC Unraveled II" book)
 +
* The ROM in the SBC is fully working with all the commands in the Standard and Extended ROMS that are applicable to the SBC
 +
* Assembled using as9 with the following command...
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
as9 exbasrom.asm -now l s19
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
* *-now" suppresses warnings
 +
* "l" produces a lst file
 +
* "s19" produces an s19 hex file
 +
* If you use as9, you will probably get a "Null pointer assignment" message when it completes
 +
** This can be ignored, and is a known bug with as9 that doesn't affect operation (according to the readme file that came with it)

J3 - FTDI / TTL Serial

  • Requires a FTDI cross-over cable
  • Can only use RS-232 or FTDI - one at a time
    • Put MAX232 in a socket if you want flexibility
    • Remove MAX232 if you want to use FTDI

Software

ROM BASIC assembly listing

  • Hex file
  • AS9 was used to assemble the BASIC listing
  • Grant wrote a serial handler to control the text I/O, along with suitable Control-C break handling
  • Includes commands from the "Extended" BASIC ROM (from the "Extended BASIC Unraveled II" book)
  • The ROM in the SBC is fully working with all the commands in the Standard and Extended ROMS that are applicable to the SBC
  • Assembled using as9 with the following command...
as9 exbasrom.asm -now l s19
  • *-now" suppresses warnings
  • "l" produces a lst file
  • "s19" produces an s19 hex file
  • If you use as9, you will probably get a "Null pointer assignment" message when it completes
    • This can be ignored, and is a known bug with as9 that doesn't affect operation (according to the readme file that came with it)
  • 115,200 BAUD
  • Same build as SIMPLE-6809 from Grant Searle
  • Works
