QX-10 Serial File Transfer
One of the things I often need to do is transfer files to and from my QX-10/16 systems. I had been using the original SysV implementation from 1994 for some time, but it has some issues mostly stemming from the fact it requires stdin/out redirection to function.
Compact Flash Booting
I have recently succeeded in getting both my QX-10 and QX-16 to boot CP/M off of the compact flash adapter I designed.
QX-16 ROM Dumping
I recently picked up a QX-16HD system and last weekend I got around to opening it up to dump the various ROMS inside. There are already existing ROM dumps for the QX-10 systems, but I don’t believe there have been any dumps published for the QX-16 before.
Digital Archaeology
I picked up a pair of MFM hard drives that came from two different QX-16s recently, and have finished imaging the drives using David Gesswein’s MFM emulator. Both drives were used with MS-DOS and only had a single partition installed on them.
Reverse engineering the Titan QX-PC
I recently managed to acquire a Titan QX-PC for the Epson QX-10 computer. This card contains a 8088 processor that will allow an Epson QX-10 to run DOS programs. It comes with a memory board supporting 256k of memory, though it was possible to purchase a second memory board that would allow for a total of 512k of DOS addressable memory.
I have begun an effort to reverse engineer this board.
