SPI Port connector type information
The SPI port connector header is a Molex-Waldom type.
Its part number is 22-23-2071. This is a 0.1" center,
0.025 post connector.
The m ating connec tor (ter minal hou sing) part n umber is
22-01-3077. Cr imp terminal part number s are 08-50-
0114 (tin plate) or 08-55-0102 (go ld). A low cost
crimping tool is 63811-1000. Parts and tools are
available from Digi-Key (800 344 4539 or
w w w . d ig ik e y. c o m )
Other housings and terminals are available (such as high
pressure). Refer to a Molex data book for more
information. A MP M T connectors (such as 87499-1)
can also be used. They fit, but ar e not polarized.
SERIAL PORT FILE NUMBERS
CAM BASIC refer ences the ser ial I/O ports by file
numbers. The following table lists the corresponding
file numbe r to ser ial I/O port and h ow they ar e used with
the various ports.
Description

Examples
C O M 1
1
PRINT "Hello"
PRINT #1," Hello"
INPUT A$
A$ = INKEY$(1)
C O M 2
2
PRINT #2," Hello"
INPUT #2,A$
A$ = INKEY$(2)
COM1 is J1, the console port. COM2 is J4, the primary
port.
