I have found an insect pin board on the street, now I have this.

draußen regnete es, bespritzte der Vorführer den Spieler mit einer Sprühflasche.

After couple of months of struggle, I have finally found a 1571 for a fair price. ( 65 EUR )
The enclosure is in a very good condition.
Popped it open, checked the PSU and after cleaning the mech and head it just works.
what a relief

Cool!. Könntest Du bitte mehr Informationen über das VR-Spiel geben, das einen Rollstuhl als Eingabegerät verwendet?

Schöner Fang, auf die Think Different Uhren bin ich fast ein wenig neidisch.

Ich habe 2 Lisa, ein ProFile und eine tote Festplatte aus dem Museum nach Hause gebracht, in der Hoffnung, eine Lisa wiederzubeleben.
Schäume und Dielektrikum in den Tastaturen sind schon lange vorbei.
Batterie auslaufen, Rost, das Übliche...
Reinigung, Reparatur der Batterie verursachte Schäden, Austausch von Kondensatoren, Schmierung festsitzender Festplattenmechanik . . .
Beide funktionieren, die kaputte festplatte und das profile auch

I had to go with the ATX PSU, CIA won't read otherwise. 🙁

Well, the cassette interface is not super reliable - but I did not expect it to be better, so ... Microchess!

I had the same problems on a Aplle IIc.
The reason was a bad cable from computer to display.
Thanks, but it is not a cable issue. If I test the video circuit without the 2519 it looks like this:
-
The distortion is steady. The bending stays in one place.
This is the composite out signal (dV=2V) :
-
Any idea what could cause this kind of image distortion? ( my other composite screen doesn't even pick up the signal )

MIMEO board PIA issue ruled out, the fault lies within the keyboard.
I've quickly put together a USB to parallel ASCII converter, and lo behold

Hello everyone,
the MIMEO seems to be functioning, but there are several issues I need to resolve.
I really hope someone more experienced can shed light on what these problems could be.
The "top half" video/char generator is producing the @ pattern as it should:
When I place the 2519 equivalent circuitry I expect the generated pattern to blink.
Although it does blink at regular intervals as it should, it introduces an error that looks like this:
The other problem is that there are only 4 different key codes that are recognized:
- CTRL+RESET --> functions normally, resets the machine which then drops into @ prompt
- ! (exclamation mark) --> the first row of keys produce ! in an alternating pattern ( every odd key )
- space --> every even key of the first row is producing a space
- backspace --> behaves like return, creates a new line with a backslash \
- all the other keys are numb
The keyboard itself is a Wendell Sander Apple 1 / Apple II Rev 1a type board from 2014,
while the daughter board is a Wendell Sander Rev 4 from 2015.
The daugther board is configured like this:
Any of your inputs is greatly appreciated,
thank you in advance.
cheers,

I would be happy, if we could use one language within a article.
sorry, my English is really bad ...I only learned it at school and then ...never needed
so, I don`t understand more than ..20%
Okay, diese Bitte kann ich verstehen. Aber die "Aus meiner Sicht gibt es keinen Mehrwert für nicht deutschsprachige Nutzer" finde ich etwas zu stark.

I would be happy, if we could use one language within a article. From my point of view there is no added value for non-German speaking users and if there is no need, we should keep one language.
Thanks a lot
und ich würde mich freuen, wenn dieses forum auch nicht deutschsprachige nutzer tolerieren könnte...

Actually it would save me a lot of time to just replicate your AVR solution as I don't want to develop high speed graphic games on the HX-20 -- I am doing this just to show Museum visitors, that the HX-20 was more than a manager calculator ( what their usual reaction is when they see it ).
So yes, I would like to try it if you could send me wiring diagram and the hex.
Although I tend to finish what I start
I plan to use the `libepsp` I am writing in an ESP32 so one core could just deal with communication while the other could deal with the frame buffer and composite signal generation.cheers,

Hey,
to be true, the EPSP documentation is rather hard to read, but not impossible
I've started to throw together the protocol implementation in C++, it is a bit hacky at the moment. I'll clean the code once I've got it working properly. The handshake and CRT negotiations are already working. But looking at your video You have already done all this
You are saying, that you wrote all that in AVR assembly?
Video chip on the expansion BUS sounds awesome. I do have an empty ROM box, so it could fit right there perfectly.

I did a little bit of "luggable XT maintenance" on a Sharp PC-7100 :
- general cleaning
- PSU recapping
- display tilt mechanic fix
- new keyboard cable
- keyboard cable socket fix
- floppy drive lubrication
- hard disk file system fix
-
Probably fake, right?

Which Macintosh?

Our Apple-1 installation is getting into shape. I am still waiting for the Sander keyboard to arrive and need to find the damned Signetics registers, but we will get there eventually.

Hey stef,
I have run into the same issue with my HX-20, the fast serial port just gave up on me at some point, but my plan was to use an ESP32 as video output so that there is enough room for double buffering, and a dedicated core to handle the serial traffic and the SD card.
Answer to Problem#2 - Was macht man damit --> I would like to make the external display a permanent part of the HX-20 installation in the Museum so visitors can understand the real implications of what that machine meant in 1982 on the market. ( Sitting next to a 1981 Osborne ).
Also my problem could be solved with some original hardware that seems to be impossible to find.
cheers,

Might be a permission error.
It was a machine specific error. Termination on the SCSI bus was too strong. Nevermind.
BlueSCSI rulz.
