One line scanning routine
This is a routine which scans one line of the keyboard directly. It is approximately 8% faster then the firmware routine and doesn't enable interrupts.
Input: A = line (&40 - &49)
Output: A = hardware keyboard value
Destroyed: BC
LD A,kbdline ; from 0 to 9 with bdir/bc1=01 LD BC,#F782 ; PPI port A out /C out OUT (C),C LD BC,#F40E ; Select Ay reg 14 on ppi port A OUT (C),C LD BC,#F6CO ; This value is an AY index (R14) OUT (C),C OUT (C),0 ; Validate!! LD BC,#F792 ; PPI port A in/C out OUT (C),C DEC B OUT (C),A ; Send KbdLine on reg 14 AY through ppi port A LD B,#F4 ; Read ppi port A IN A,(C) ; e.g. AY R14 (AY port A) LD BC,#F782 ; PPI port A out / C out OUT (C),C DEC B ; Reset PPI Write OUT (C),0 Now check for the value from the table e.g. with''''bit x,A''''and a condition e.g.''''jp z,xxxx''''or''''call z,xxxx''''
Please note:
- Bit = 0: Key is pressed
- Bit = 1: Key is not pressed
Complete keyboard scanning routine
This routine scans the complete keyboard and writes all key status bits in a map.
keymap ds 10 ;map with 10*8 = 80 key status bits (bit=0 key is pressed)
