Pre Release HP01 Running

In the meantime I've found 2 other problems:
1) in your HP-01 version the clock is running much too slow!
I've compared it with PANAMATIK's emulator (both running side by side), and already after 1-2 minutes your emulation is a few seconds behind!?

2) I know that this HP-01 prerelease/prototype version is a bit different to the official version, but I guess there's something wrong with the "a" key on your emulator. I don't know exactly what this "a" should do on the prototype version, but in your emulator it is the same as "C" (i.e. clears the display) - in PANAMATIK's version it behaves differently.
And with the integrated debugger in your version I see that this "a" key produces exactly the same keycode as "C" - I doubt that this is intention!?

1) If you look in the menu you can see an option [Fine tune timer] This will adjust the timer for the processor execution loop and therefore the time updates. A bit like using the crystal trimmer on the watch circuit board. It will never be perfect, but neither was the actual watch. The time will always drift slightly. It will sync to the PC time on start up.

2) Oops, I must have left a test value there in the keyboard lookup table. I have fixed the key code value.

The 'a' key sets the time or alarm to [am] if it is in the default 12 hour mode of operation.

New download ready.
