Ken, I managed to find someone willing to let me use their 4shared username and password to download the file. Is this the default image that would get if you order a SuperIDE with CF card "preloaded with software" from Cloud-9?KenH wrote:The easiest way to get started is with retrocanada's SuperIDE preloaded CF image.

It is a CF image with a collection of most of the CoCo software available in the various archives online.

No. This is an image that was compiled by RetroCanada.zephyr wrote: Is this the default image that would get if you order a SuperIDE with CF card "preloaded with software" from Cloud-9?
By default, Cloud9 supplies a CF card preloaded with NitrOS9 and the SuperIDE utilities described in section 5 of the SuperIDE manual http://www.frontiernet.net/~mmarlette/C ... Manual.pdf
When you order, Mark will verify your CoCo configuration in order to assure that you receive a properly configured CF card.

Thanks Ken! 
Re: The Cloud-9 SuperIDE Interface
How do you access the SuperIDE's Real Time Clock feature? Please post a working machine code or BASIC example.
Re: The Cloud-9 SuperIDE Interface
According to the SuperIDE User Manual there are three registers used by the real time clock ($FF78-$FF79 and $FF7C). Peeking these from BASIC always returns the same value. How do you get/set the time and date using these three registers from a BASIC or machine code program?
Re: The Cloud-9 SuperIDE Interface
The cloud9 RTC is based on the DS1315-5 chip. You can find its datasheet online.
I haven't seen any Dos code for it, but you could use the NitrOS9 clock2 driver as a reference.
See the source code here: http://nitros9.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb ... ds1315.asm

That is an ideal reference.Re: The Cloud-9 SuperIDE Interface
