Frequently Answers and Questions

How can I access ROM programs on the Commodore Plus/4 and C16?

The BASIC interpreter is the primary user interface and starts automatically when powered on. The secondary user interface is TEDMON, which can be accessed by holding down the Reset button when powering on the computer or by using the MONITOR command from BASIC. The KERNAL is used by the BASIC interpreter and other programs and can be accessed directly from BASIC using the SYS command.

What is the TED chip and how does it work?

The TED chip is responsible for graphics and sound on these computers. The document provides links to resources for a more complete description and memory map of the TED chip.

How can I create a custom character set?

To use custom character sets, you need to clear the second bit of the TED register 65298, select a memory page for your character set, and protect the character data from being overwritten. The document explains how to achieve this using POKE commands.
