ROM image convertor ? Message #1 Posted by Pavel Korensky on 13 Dec 2003, 8:21 a.m. Hello, anyone have some conversion utility for HP41 ROM images ? I need to convert some images from unpacked (2 bytes per instruction) format to packed (4 + 1 bytes per 4 instruction) and back.

Re: ROM image convertor ? Message #2 Posted by Emmanuel, France on 13 Dec 2003, 9:34 a.m., in response to message #1 by Pavel Korensky I'm not a specialist but I use successfully SDS-II. I can read and write a digital cassette (for HP82161A) or a 3.5" LIF disc (for HP9114A/B) through HP-IL/PC card. Thus I transform a ROM image (640 register format) into a compatible ROM image for Clonix. And the operation from a PC to an HP-IL MSU. Edited: 13 Dec 2003, 9:35 a.m.

Re: ROM image convertor ? Message #4 Posted by Diego Diaz on 15 Dec 2003, 3:22 a.m., in response to message #3 by David Hi, For the "forward" direction, the previous advices are appropriate. For the opposite direction, namely, .BIN -> .ROM, I've written a small but not yet documented utility. I'll send you a preliminary revision of it, if you're interested. I'll also write a .ROM -> .BIN in the near future, but I still suffer a little lack of spare time... :-) Cheers. Diego.
