There is the PI based terminal, which I have but I find this to be more compact and easier to use. It is just that I find being tethered to another PC to run the RC2014 is inconvenient. Not to disparage any of the other kits out there. Z180 and RomWBW variants are not compatible because of the default 38400 baud serial ports configuration.Future updates requires to program the EEPROM with a Propeller-compatible uploader using the programming header or an external device capable of programming serial EEPROMs. The EEPROM is pre-programmed with the latest firmware available at the time of purchase.The Propeller microcontroller doesn't have hardware support for USB host, the implementation is all software, and despite it was tested with different keyboard models and manufacturers there is absolutely no guarantee that it works with your keyboard.The USB host supports keyboards only, no other devices are supported including hubs.If you are unsure, please ask before purchase. Basic electronics components knowledge and soldering skills are required to build this product.This is the Full Kit version, see my other listing for the PCB only.It connects directly with the standard RX and TX lines on the bus and doesn't require any dedicated driver.Ĭompatible with all RC2014 configurations, including the Mini variant.

The board uses a single Parallax Propeller microcontroller running at 80MHz to generate the VGA signals at and the USB host protocol. I did this to make the RC2014 computer less dependent from a PC connected with a serial cable. This is a serial terminal add-on board for the RC2014 computer that adds support for VGA text at 80x25 with 16 colors, ANSI / VT-100 terminal emulation, and USB keyboard support.
