Hello out there
does any of the existing QL emulators support a QL network link between PC
and QL? - I do not mean by Serial port (as I know QPC2 can do this) but by
the "QL network" connection - probably to a pair of data/ground pins on the
PC's parallel port?
Regards
Michael

Yes, and IIRC it depended on the QXL's speed, if a faster processor was

Hi Dilwyn,
I made a cable and connect up QPC2, Q60, QXL, QL, Atari ST QL
All worked very well, except the serial network speed is limited to the slowest
machine, in the the above chage the QL.

Hello out there,
is sernet for the QL free or does it cost money? As far as I understand the
matter it is already built into the OS of QPC2, but I would need a software
counterpart for the Sinclair black box?
So far I only found webpages containing discussions on sernet but not a
download page :-(

I expected that.
Which version of Sernet did you use to get the 'circular' system working.

No, it's supplied separately on the SMSQ/E (or QPC) disc. And normally

Dilwyn,
If only 2 machines or nodes are on the Sernet, then a standard null modem leas will
do. Try Maplins or any electronics store or I can supply them.
With more than 2 nodes on the serial network, then a special cable or arrangement must
be made. As you have suggested, the Sernet is a circ
