This expansion card is an evolution of the [[Symbiface 3]].
[[File:Poulette73-rsf3.jpg]] [[File:RSF3.jpg|600px]] <br>
= Features =
*480 MHz 2-core processor.
*USB port for storage.
*USB port for mouse (Multiplay).
*microSD port for system and settings.
*2 slots for MX4 cards (DC3 connector).
*Output for FM radio antenna.
*Headphone & microphone input/output for VOIP.
*[[MIDI ]] audio input/output.
*DAC analog audio output.
*Wifi with antenna (speed 2 MB/s).
*Reset button.
<br> == Parameters available during the initialization ==
*Activation of a chime at startup: ON/OFF.
*SE-One: ON/OFF. Allows you to activate the emulation of the MSX SE-One card, which offers an MP3 decoder (with playback of other formats such as AAC, MP4, M4A, WMA, WAV, MID, OGG) + an FM radio.
*Symbiface II: ON/OFF. Allows you to activate or not the compatibility mode with the Symbiface II.
*Multiplay mouseMouse: ON/OFF. Allows you to enable or disable USB mouse support.
*GMT time zone: to set the time offset, based on the time zone.
<br> == Miscellaneous ==
The RSF3 also contains the following elements:
*Emulation of older interfaces like the [[Amstrad SSA-1 speech synthesizerSpeech Synthesizer]], the [[Amdrum]], and the [[Digiblaster]]. With programs for each of these interfaces to use them.*Emulation of all the functionalities ([[SID]], MP3, [[MIDI]], FM radio, web radio) of the Amsdap SE-One.*A "System Information" application which summarizes the detailed information of the RSF3 (firmware version, Wifi and network information, activated rombank and list of roms with their positions, the activation status/or not of the M4, the SE -One, CPC 464 hack, MultiplayMouse, SF2[[Symbiface II]], etc.
*A drawing application for the stylus.
*A “Post-it” application to write whatever you want, like a memory aid.
 
<br>
The 2 MX4 slots are more than sufficient given that with the RSF3 you don't need to have as many as a Mother X4 given that it already includes:
*a 2 MB memory extension (can be deactivated if necessary): no need to add another one.
*255 rombanks: no need to add a rombank.
*[[M4 Board ]] emulation: no need to add the card of the same name.*[[Hackit|Hacker v7.0 ]] in a dedicated rombank: no need to add the card of the same name.*support for a USB mouse: no need to add a Multiplay [[MultiPlay]] or an [[Albireo]].*an [[RTC ]] clock: no need to add a [[Nova ]] extension or equivalent.
*emulation of old audio devices/cards, etc.
