[Coco] Using Rick Adam's DELPHIterm 3.1 to connect a Coco3 to a TRS80 PT210

[rietveld rietveld]

All very good points but the reason I made the video was to show that DELPHITERM was the only terminal program that I could get to properly work with the PT210 The deluxe rs232 paks terminal program works but will not issue a proper carriage return. The paper would not advanced up unless the terminal program transmitted a full 80 characters, either full or blank DelphiTerm did work after I setup the basic loader with the terminal settings including the PT210 s max baud rate of 300

 And if you get any alcohol on the printout, the fading will be instantaneous.  :-D

The only way to be sure is to either scan the thermal printout or get a copy of it using a tried and true copy machine.

 Just be aware that those thermal paper printouts have a very poor shelf
life, fading into the sunset in 6 months or less. Higher storage temps
and light exposure hasten this, a lot.  So don't figure on going back
and refreshing you memory by re-reading it 2 years later.
