zip3 ARM2SID Quick Installation Guide

ARM2SID is a new replacement for 2 Commodore SID music chips and more. ARM2SID is a bigger brother of our well known ARMSID, which is a real "plug & play" solution and fully replaces both the MOS6581 and MOS8580 chips.
ARM2SID comes whenever 2 SID chips are needed, usually for stereo. If you have 2 SID sockets, just place the ARM2SID in the primary socket, SID2 in the secondary socket, connect both of them with the provided 5 or 10 cm cable, configure with the provided C64/C128 utility and go.
If you have just one socket and are not afraid of soldering, you can get even more. Use the provided connector cable, connect the 6 wires to your C64/C128 and you get the 2nd SID for stereo, the 3rd SID for 3SID music and OPL FM synthesis compatible with FM Sound Expander!
Enjoy your ARM2SID!

pdf12 CardCo CardPrint +G

Within the text of this manual references are made to many printers and printer types. The C/?+G interface was intended to be used only with printers that conform to certain standards. There are four groups of printers that are intended to be used with the C/?+G interface. Within each group there may be many printers. The four groups are the Epson group, the Prowriter group, the Okidata group and the Siekosha group. A listing of the most common printers in each group is on page A1 of the appendix of this manual. When, in this manual, we refer to one of the printers in a group the statement will refer to all  printers in that group.

If your printer isn't listed in one of those groups it may still be in one of them, we just aren't aware of it. If this is the case and you find that your printer works when set up like one of the printers in one of the groups, please let us know so we can pass on the information to other users.

Any printer can be used with the C/?+G (See page A1 of the appendix for OTHER PRINTERS) but the special Commodore functions and Commodore graphics will not be available.
