Fischertechnik Interface

2 bytes removed, 15:19, 3 September 2010
The [[Fischertechnik Interface]] is used for : * the [[Fischertechnik Trainingsrobot]] and for * the [[Fischertechnik Computing Experimental]] kit, and * the [[Fischertechnik Plotter/Scanner]].
== Inputs/Outputs ==
The interface for the CPC (as well as newer RS232/USB versions) consists of:
 
* 8 single bit inputs ports (eg. for sensing when a robot-arm reached its end-position)
* 4 "bidirectional" ports (for motor control) (here "bidirectional" rather means "three-state-output" aka "forward/stop/backward")
Fischertechnik has built several interfaces:
 
* Interface for Parallel Ports (used on C64/VIC20/CPC/PC/Atari/Amiga)
* Interface for RS232 Ports (used on PCs) (9600 baud, 8bit, no parity, 1 stopbit)
