Re: RS232 Interface (8255 Chip) £30

Hi,
Yes, it's an (another!) Centronics card… too many datas on the socket, it's a female subd25 and there's no cristal/max232 components.
But, with a 8255, you can send a serial data on the socket… with a good zx81 program.

Re: Memopak Centronics Interface, plus another.

Hi Erm, I'm sorry, i put the wrong dump program ! It dumped the $2000 to $3000 memory segment… The right program will (REALLY) scan the 0-2000 memory offset. P & Wav: BiosDump.zip LOAD it, and wait the "9/4" (STOP AT LINE 4) And Save it (SAVE"DUMP") Your previous wav was clean and working. I'm sorry...
