 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

Well, yes. Still, there are now so many options to configure MMBasic, it may have worked. So worth a try. |

It's always a good idea to get the schematic *before* ordering a board. That way you at least stand a chance of seeing how compatible it is. Unfortunately most are designed around running C or Python, and sometimes with only their own pre-configured libraries, I think.

Hehe.... :) Get the traces cut and the soldering iron heated up and *make* it work - whether it wants to or not. :) When working with my PicoGAME HDMI I open switches to isolate the USB socket on the Pico from the hub. I then power the board from the Pico USB socket while loading MMBasic. I deliberately used GP8 and GP9 as the console port, so I can then simply move the USB lead to that and close the USB switches again. I then have a console to work with. I don't know that particular board, but it might be worth doing some track chopping to make easy access to GP8 and GP9 for a terminal connection via a suitable USB-TTL converter. You *can* work it by using the HDMI output with the USB keyboard input (the PicoMite will accept these as default console at boot) and using that to set up the console port. You will be typing blind to get the HDMI to work though as the pins are wrong. Or you can rewire them or build a M-F HDMI adapter. :) Mick Zilog Inside! nascom.info for Nascom & Gemini Preliminary MMBasic docs & my PCB designs |
