RE: HP-41 RAMBox Questions

Armed with all that info I was able to re-write the OS on my RAMBOX with "-RAMBOX 32" OS using a CLONIX module with ZenROM and a new RAMBOX image. Special thanks to Sylvain for his patience with off-line questions. I'm pretty sure that this RAMBOX went through my hands. Good to hear that it ended up in good hands. This guy also found a few 41CY and contacted me to restore the OS. This project ended up in the RB2INI module (after many sleepless nights). As you found out in the meantime, this is a 32K RAMBOX. It runs fine with the "-RAMBOX 64b" ROM except that a few specific functions like PG<> do not have any effect. I guess that the "ES RSU- 1A" was loaded to save the RAMBOX OS to mini cassettes because a few of them were part of the package that this guy uncovered. The other three ROM's (-KATASTER 1, -ING-VERM 1, -ING-VERM-2) are most probably related to surveying. Back then I didn't save these images because without documentation I thought they are more or less useless. I think I have a RAMBOX with the "-RAMBOX 32" image. However, currently I don't have easy access to my collection. Due to some renovation work in the attic I had to put them into boxes. That's also the reason why I was neglecting my hobby in the last few weeks. If I'll find the right box I will save and share the image. I thought of building a ROM to recover a 32K RAMBOX. However, it's relatively easy to recover it with "standard" tools like CLONIX. That's why the priority of such a project is low. Enjoy your new gadget. For my part, I like the possibility to load FOCAL programs into RAM which allows for building your personal ROM images. |
