Specifications

The active slot is displayed on four (4) LEDs on targets that support this feature.

A 5

switch controls the auto-start for images in locations 2-15. You can think of this switch as

inserting / removing the cartridge from your Coco. Technically however, it's more akin to placing

sticky-tape over the CART# pin, as the ROM image is still accessible by the Coco.

See the reference section for your target harwdare for more details.

PS/2 Keyboard

The PS/2 keyboard emulates the Coco keyboard as far as possible.

However, due to key mapping differences between the Coco and modern-day PC's, there are some

rather annoying differences that are actually quite difficult (if not impossible) to re-map in a

hardware emulation.

The following table details the mappings that are incompatible:
