Hello all,

First sorry for writing in English, but I think it is better then to use some bad online translation tool in this case.

I am currently working on emulation of few DDR machines, and one of them is LLC1, if anyone have schematics of it or some more technical detail it would be great.

Things I know so far are :

monitor is located 0x0000 - 0x07fff
basic rom is located 0x0800 - 0x13ff
RAM 0x1400 - 0x1bff
video ram 0x1c00 - 0x1fff

video output is 64 x 16 chars.

on ports 0xec - 0xef Z80PIO is located
on ports 0xf8 - 0xfb Z80CTC is located

after initial boot, monitor is waiting for some interrupt in infinite loop, assume it is generated by CTC but not sure, so that is why I need schematics, or if someone have scan of Funkamateur (january 1985), that would be great.

Thanks,
Micko

Hi Micko,

> I am currently working on emulation of few DDR machines...
Not bad, but why do you do it? What is your motivation?

> ...and one of them is LLC1
Why LLC1? This machine was replaced by the LLC2 very soon,
a much improved computer,
so the LLC1 was not often build.

> Things I know so far are...

You think right.
Here you can download the original functional description (67 MByte):
http://www.jens-mueller.org/tmp/llc1.pdf
Sorry for the bad scan!
There is no better one available. :-(

The LLC1 has a 7 segment LED display and a charcater screen output (64x16).
Also there is a hexadecimal keyboard and an alphanumeric keyboard.
The monitor program works with the 7 segment display and the hex keyboard.
But some output (f.e. register contents on reaching a breakpoint)
is done on the screen.
Pressing a hex key is firing an interrupt via ctc, that's right.

The tiny basic works with character screen output and the alphanumeric keyboard only.

It is not easy to write a LLC1 emulator because the very rar information.
Also I don't know anyone who has a working LLC1 on his own.
But I had already implemented a LLC1 emulation in my multi emulator JKCEMU,
that is working well.
But still I have not published this version of my emulator.
Maybe in 2 or 3 weeks it will happen.

If you have more questions, don't hesitate to ask here.
Good luck!

Jens

Hi Jens,

Thanks for your answer.
My motivation is to add some old and forgoten machines in MESS project and help preserve software for them.

Things that I have done so far can be found at : http://micko-wip.blogspot.com/

Before you have sent answer I have tried to hack boot procedure and start basic right away, on my blog you can see screen of it.

Thanks again,
Micko
