Loading Forth ROM into Clonix Module



#3

Hi,
How do I load the Forth-41.HEX ROM image into the Clonix-41 module?
What Page, Bank etc?
When I try to load it, nothing appears in the Cat 2 directory.
Any suggestions?
Regards
Phil Green

Hi Phil,

Please try:

http://www.clonix41.org/Projects/Clonix-41/forth-41.zip

This is the .HEX file to load directly into IC-Prog buffer.

Note that this is compiled with Clonix6P code, therefore, current drain will be higher than the ClonixLP counterpart...

I'll build "LP" .HEX versions for some of these "rare" modules that use pages below #6, namely: Services, Forth, Laitram... it will take a while though. (Really busy nowadays)

Best regards

Diego.

Edited to add: Please remember that Forth ROM as well as any other using page #5 won't work when plugged into 41CX for obvious reasons ;-))

Hi Diego,
Thanks for your advice once again.
I should have realised that it was a .HEX file.
And yes, I have found I can not use it in my CX! I have just tried it!
Can this ROM ever be relocated so that it does not use page #5?
Regards
Phil Green

I'm affraid I'm not of much help here... Sorry.

If any of the M-code gurus here read this, they may know if such a relocation is possible.

Best wishes.

Diego.

Took a quick look. Seems the lower 4K must be at page 4 yet the upper page (the one with the FAT) can go into any page. That is: the local executes are relative (not hard wired to page 5). Worth a try anyway.

Best

Thanks Doug, I'll give a go to a "splitted" Forth-41 version to verify your point... alas I'm not sure how long it will take... as noted before, I'm really busy nowadays.

Cheers

Diego.
