I bought a CP-Clock (Cassette Port Clock) from someone in the Netherlands. It is a really little interesting device that maintains the current date and time with a rechargeable battery in it.
The diskette includes also an autoexec DA to set, save and refresh the time under GEOS.

Perhaps the device can be replicated! Truly, Robert Bernardo Fresno Commodore User Group www.dickestel.com/fcug.htm |

That is pretty cool! The board lay-out looks well done, and nice case too! I would be interested in one, considering I'm not using the cassette port for anything (well it powers uIEC, but has pass-though connection).
Does have C128-native (preferred) or C64-native code to read/set the clock? And if author allows, could you post the code? It would be interesting to see how it works from a software perspective.
Anyway, great photos and thanks for sharing!!

The diskette has GEOS autoexec files for both the C64 and the C128. A D64 image of the diskette is here.

If you come to next year's July 30-31 CommVEx v12, bring along the device, and I could take a look at it. Still thinking if it can be replicated, Robert Bernardo Fresno Commodore User Group www.dickestel.com/fcug.htm |

I would hate to disassemble the GOES code, so was hoping there was more simple (native 64/128-mode) code to analyze. Yes, there are several RTC solutions, so that is why I am interested in how this device works. Even better (than me dissecting code) would be some documentation.... err, I realize that may be wishing for too much!

Yesterday under hardware, DLH's Commodore Archive added the Users Hand-Guide for the CP-Clock F83 and a D64 image of the 5.25" disk.

Do you mean Bombjack? That is a great site. I looked but could not find the user manual... of course it is a huge site with no SEARCH ability (AFAIK) so I might have missed it. Can you give us a link TacKer? |
