Re: ZX81 Nuclear Power Station Software

I have added the thermodynamics stuff now and I just have a couple of bugs to sort. I am hoping to start making the video next week.

Watch this space...

Re: Thurnall Hardware Add-Ons

One of the things i was planning was to add some I/O support to the Nuclear Power Station software viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4278. Wherever I end up using it, I will certainly make a record and post here.

Once again many thanks.

Re: Thurnall Hardware Add-Ons

And here it is. Quality wasn't amazing to start with, but it looks like it's all legible. Thank you so much this is fantastic. I was thinking of expanding the Nuclear Reactor software https://www.sinclairzxworld.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4278 to control some real hardware. May end up trying something...

Thurnall Hardware Add-Ons

Does anyone know where I could get the user manual/handbook for the Thurnall TE10 I/O port add-on? I know it uses a Z80PIO and is accessed using the Z80 I/O ports but I have no idea which ones. http://glasstty.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/TE10.Front_.jpg http://glasstty.com/wp-content/uploads/2021...

The program was wriiten in C and cross compiled with ZX88DK so not sure if a faster Basic would help, although I do use the ROM floating point routines for all the maths.

Nice to see the old black wedge used as a computer and not just a games console.
So glad you said that, it is exactly my feeling.

ZX81 Nuclear Power Station Software

Just putting a few finishing touches to some ZX81 software to model a Pressurised Light Water nuclear power station. All of the maths is now complete and the model works, Just sorting the user interface. Hopefully I will get a video out soon on the GlassTTY YouTube channel. http://glasstty.com/wp-co...
