Ah, the ZX Spectrum+ 128k, the last of the units produced by Sinclair before Amstrad took them over and added a proper keyboard.

...the BASIC programming manual taught the rudiments of coding, and third party books like the one on machine code allowed those with a flair for it to delve deeper and get a real understanding of how computers worked at a low level. All because the machine itself did nothing, had a simple programming language built-in and had a very, very good manual.

So I downloaded a Sinclair ZX Spectrum emulator for my cellphone. Those 48k games work well on Symbian. The Kempston joystick emulation is difficult as you need to press the mini joystick down for fire - not ideal.

This isn't that bad a keyboard really. Not as good as the +2 and +3 models, but was better than the old 48K rubber one!

 

The most important keys, J and P are present here.

Dvoj-tlačidlová Genius Mouse v originálnom balení.

 

- Konektor:9 pin M (samec)

- Rozlíšenie: 200 DPI

- Protokol: <a target="_blank"class="valuelink" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_mouse

-">BUSmouse Typ: GM7

 

*Upozor-nenie: Pre pripojenie do PC potrebuje ISAkontrolér pre BUS mouse protokol*

 

Vzhľ-adom na jednoduchý BUS protokol jeveľmi vhodná na pripojenie k domácim počítačom ako napríklad:

-Amiga

- Atari ST

- Amstrad PCW

- Commodore 64/128

- Sinclair QL, ZXspectrum – datel – link – <atarget="_blank" class="valuelink"href="http://k1.spdns.de/Vintage/Sinclair/82/Peripherals/Mouse%20Interfaces/Datel%20GM-7%20Bus%20Mouse/

-">linkAcorn

- Apple

 

V niektorých prípadoch postačí zmena zapojenia pinov(redukcia),

niekde postačí pridať pár súčiastok, v iných prípadochje potrebný interface.

 

A-miga – Bus Mouse redukcia (prevzatéz internetu):

- amiga pin.1 = mouse pin.4 (V pulzy)

- amiga pin.2 = mousepin.1 (H pulzy)

- amiga pin.3 = mouse pin.3 (V smer)

- amiga pin.4 = mousepin.2 (H smer)

- amiga pin.5 = mouse pin.5 (M button)

- amiga pin.6 = mousepin.6 (L button)

- amiga pin.7 = mouse pin.7 (+5V)

- amiga pin.8 = mouse pin.8(GND)

- amiga pin.9 = mouse pin.9 (R button)
