Xerox 820 documentation.

Hi , Thanks for your answer. I should now have a disk with the system and PIP (I don't know whether it would boot though, I haven't tested it yet) Anyway I was looking at how I could use PIP to transfer the data but I only managed to find some examples Using the AUX: connector which I think is CP/M 3 (+) and not 2.2 which is the version on the 820. Do you know more on how I can use the PIP command ? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Dwight K.

Hi You didn't mention if you have a disk that boots and has PIP under CP/M on it. If you do, you can transfer information as ASCII like a BASIC source program or even transfer .COM files by first converting them to .HEX files and then using DDT on the 820 to move them to .COM files. If you are attempting to bootstrap with no disk, you'll have to check with others. One may be able to do it if it has a built in debug monitor. Of course, on can always write some of ones own code and replace one of the internal EPROMs. It is not as impossible as it sounds. You just have to explore a little. Dwight
