From terrygski at cfl.rr.com Mon Dec 5 14:48:38 2005 From: terrygski at cfl.rr.com (Terry Gulczynski) Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2005 09:48:38 -0500 Subject: [P112] GIDE Announcement Message-ID: <001301c5f9aa$fa4af4a0$6401a8c0@terry1> ANNOUNCEMENT: The P112-GIDE prototype adapter board is tested and ready for production. I'm taking pre-orders now to determine how many boards I need to have produced. The per-board cost drops dramatically as the number of boards in a production run goes up, so pre-orders placed now (no commitment yet) will determine the cost of the GIDE kit. Estimated kit cost is no more than $60; the cost will drop if pre-orders justify a larger production run. Assembled and tested units will cost $25 more. Another e-mail with actual prices will follow in a week or two. Shipping will commence in mid-late January 2006. The prices include a fully configured B/P BIOS (C Hal Bower and Cam Cotrill) boot disk with a GIDE driver built-in and all necessary software. If desired, arrangements can be made to have your P112 and GIDE kits assembled and tested as a single unit*. The price for the service has yet to be determined. Contact me for details. Prices include First Class shipping via USPS within the US. Shipping outside the US may cost slightly more. * - 'Assembled and tested' does NOT mean plug it in, turn it on, and away you go. You will still have to install it in a cabinet, supply 3.5" floppy and IDE drives and cables, configure the BIOS for the drives, and integrate the terminal. What it DOES mean is that everything will work as advertised; support will be provided as necessary for you to complete the integration of your drives and terminal.

The P112-specific version mentioned here does the same thing, but is specifically designed to accommodate the expansion connector and mounting holes of the P112 and the Z80182 CPU. It provides 16-bit I/O to your 'typical' IDE drive, along with the software necessary to format and partition the IDE drive into as many as 13 separate partitions, each with its own drive letter under CP/M. Partition 0: is a 'boot' partition, and will boot directly with the current P112 ROM version. The included B/P BIOS (copyright Cam Cotrill and Hal Bower) takes full advantage of the P112's Z80182 CPU, providing an easily configured Banked-RAM BIOS, BDOS, and CCP, and (up to) a 1MB memory map. The list of configuration options for the B/P BIOS is far too long to list here.

When you reply, trim out all the irrelevant posts. When you replied, you included some 40 kilobytes of other stuff to just say "put me down for one...". 2. You NEED to set the subject to the subject of the post you're replying to. If you don't do it, archive threading gets messed up and others won't as easily know what you're talking about. 3.

The P112-GIDE board is approximately 4"x4" and mounts directly to the P112 board. On the left side you'll find the standard 40 pin IDE connector. The right side has the 3x16 expansion connector that plugs into the P112 connector. This connector allows you to 'daisy-chain' a second expansion board that can carry a second P112-GIDE or another board yet to be developed. (For myself, I intend to connect a second P112-GIDE board for use with a ZIP-100 IDE drive. Plans are in the works for an expansion board that will bring out the three 'uncommitted' TTL-level serial ports and perform the RS-232 level-shift. However, this board will not use the expansion connector daisy-chain.) On the board are two GAL ICs that perform I/O port mapping and control. There are also two 74F646 ICs that convert the 8-bit P112 data bus to the 16-bit data bus used with IDE drives. Finally, there are a few miscellaneous items such as port address jumpers, HD Activity LED, and a jumper for an external HD Activity LED. Not much to it as it's a fairly simple adapter. I'll e-mail ZIP'D .JPG photos to anyone that wants them. -- Terry From kepla at btinternet.com Tue Dec 6 23:53:26 2005 From: kepla at btinternet.com (Kevin Lawton) Date: Tue, 6 Dec 2005 23:53:26 -0000 Subject: [P112] GIDE Announcement In-Reply-To: Message-ID: I was just thinking the same - 'me too' I guess.

The board went together quickly and the software Terry supplied booted as soon as I had drives attached. The Bp / Bios Operating System is solid and works great. I'm running 3 floppies and hard drive with 5 partitions. Next step is to try a removable CF Drive as the second Ide drive.
