[comp.sys.zenith.z100] Need CPM/ZDOS port info.

rouilj@umb.umb.edu (John P. Rouillard) (06/26/89)

The program that I am writing uses Pickles and Trout IEEE-488 (GPIB)
software.  I have this running with BASCOM under ZDOS.  Another part
of the program needs to drive two stepper motors.  I am using a
cromenco A to D converter thatr is wired into the s-100 bus.

If I boot the machine with CPM, and load MBASIC, I can send a byte to
the port at address 24 (18H) with the folowing basic instruction.

  OUT 24,<byte>

This byte drives the lines high on the cromenco board.  But, when I
try to use the same command with BASCOM under ZDOS, I access the A:
floppy drive port.  I get the drive to spin and everything.

Does anybody have any idea what port I should be accessing under ZDOS
to get the 24 port under CPM.  Alternativly, does anyone know where I
should start looking for this info.  Any mauals that the department
had for this computer are missing.
