CPC Tape Connector

External Cassette Connector (CPC 664/6128 only) (5 pin DIN, female)

 1  Remote Control           __ __
 2  Ground                  /  -  \
 3  Remote Control         |       |
 4  Data Input             |3     1|
 5  Data Output             \5_2_4/
  • 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.

KC Compact Tape Connector

 5      Motor On (TTL)      \5_2_4/

  • Caution: The connector looks same as on CPC, but the Pin-Outs are entirely different, and, Motor On is a TTL output (instead of a Relais)
