Commodore Modem Model 8010

autopsy:

Questo e’ il mio primo modem (Accoppiatore Acustico) veniva venduto per il Commodore PET ma si poteva utilizzare anche sul Commodore 64 collegandolo prima ad una interfaccia IEEE488 venduta separatamente.

Descrizione:

  • Origine: USA
  • Piu’ venduto: Usa
  • Rarita’: Abbastanza Raro.
  • Anno: 1979-1983

I primissimi modelli di modem non venivano connessi alla linea telefonica tramite doppino telefonico, bensi’ erano dotati di un’apparecchiatura supplementare nella quale si inseriva la cornetta telefonica: l’accoppiatore telefonico. era composto da due cavita’, in una era presente un microfono (per ospitare la parte superiore della cornetta) e nell’altra un piccolo altoparlante (per ospitare la parte inferiore della cornetta).

    Hi

    I’ve got the same hardware somewhere but I never had been able to make any use of it. As you pictured it’s documentation, could you make a scan of it and publish it on your site (or send me it by mail). Could you describe how you’ve using it on your C64 ?

    Thanks in advance.

    I had one of those when I lived in Germany, and I actually ran a BBS off it, the handset was permanently strapped into the coupler and a magnetic coil stuck to the phone / user port which also controlled a motorized lever to take the phone on/off hook. A hilarious setup, when I think about it now. ANYWAYS, I now have it without power supply. Do you have any info on the power supply pinout ?
