  • The two Remote Control pins are connected to a relais inside of the CPC, the relais becomes closed when the /Motor On bit in PIO Port C is set to zero, ie. the cassette recorder may use the relais to switch its power suppy on and off when Play and/or Record is pressed - this is of course supposed for low-voltages only.
  • The CPC 6128+ does not include a Cassette Connector.
