Just to add to this I have this working on the Arduino Leonardo and it works great so far. Just waiting for the console mode and if possible the pc fileserver mode and it's perfect. Great work Greg I have been waiting years for this. http://www.psxdev.net/forum/download/file.php?mode=view&id=980...

Anyone got an old working SCPH-5552 they no longer need?

Must be in okay condition and working and be in the UK.

No daft prices please

This is a simple guide on how to make a SIOCONS compatible USB-SIO cable that works under dosbox. Its simple because I am rubbish at writing guides and howto's. Admin - if this needs moving to a better section by all means please do. Anyway.. down to business :-) You will need the following :- @ PSX...

No you couldn't. The power for the circuit comes from the USB port of the connected computer. It isn't wired to take power from the PlayStation SIO port.

how easy would it be to change the code slightly ao we can use a pro micro 32u4? i have loads of these for other projects thats all but unfortunately D11 isnt present. ... I will make the change for the pro micro, but I do not have a hardware to do the test, I will pm you the new firmware when it's...

i have loads of these for other projects thats all but unfortunately D11 isnt present.

great news though and great work. look forward to trying it out. i never managed to get the action replay version working.

If you want higher resolution pictures of it I can take some with my SLR, it does look like something custom as when I opened the hood to take the last pictures of it a quick search of the IC markings didn't turn anything up. I also have another type of phone interface cable which came with a japane...

I have a Pocketstation, as well as the I-Mode cable which uses a pad port for serial communication to some Japanese mobile phones.

Is there anything in there for the imode cable?

I think i figured out another way to add external storage to the psx. #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/file.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <kernel.h> #include <libgte.h> #include <libgpu.h> #include <libetc.h> #include <libapi.h> #include <libmcx.h> /* from BlackBag/Nagra PSX 0x1f801040 - unsig...

Caetla has an inbuilt facility to launch EXEs from the memorycard too. Not sure if its as good as what Shendo coded but it always worked well for me

I upgraded my Xplorer to UniROM and just wanted to say what a cracking piece of work it is!


Last time I used cheats with Caetla I a 99% sure they are stored on a memory card. The plaintext stuff is converted using one of the caetla tools which you upload to the memorycard.

All parts other than PCB are available on eBay, or check your local electronics supplier if you have one. Only thing you would need making up are the PCBs

Look under projects/worknlogs there is a USB solution for this. Alternatively there is the freewing interface you can build to use a parallel port.

I have one of the original datel cards but I would advise against using one as they don't work on modern operating systems.

I'd love a decent dev board hanging off the back of a cart so could do code upload over ethernet or WiFi and doing away with cables altogether. Something like a raspberry pi or Edison board would be cool, would be like a ps1 tool almost :-) I've been experimenting with an esp8266 board on the serial...

Thanks Greg. These boards are very cheap, around £4 so would cut down the cost of making these adaptedlrs quite a bit, as the teensy and adafruit boards are around £17 here in the UK. I have the other parts in the mail so will be able to test it quite quickly. Look forward to giving it a whirl. Th...

Hi Greg Thanks for the reply, I believe this is the schematic for the board I have. http://www.psxdev.net/forum/download/file.php?id=638 Looking at it PE6 isnt used. PB0, PB1 and PB2 are available. PD0 through to PD7 are also available with the exception of PD5 which is wired up as a Tx LED. It also...

Fantastic work, I have been wanting a USB solution for years :-) Just have a quick question, Its probably no, but will ask anyway.. I already have a few ATMEGA AT32U4 based boards lying around, they go under the name AT32U4 Pro Micro.. Would it be possible to use one of these in lieu of the Adafruit...

Have you tested it yourself? I tried this a long time ago and could never get it to communicate.

If you are wanting a very good quality cable I can recommend the Monster Scart Cable. I have one, its gold plated, oxygen free copper, and very heavy duty cable. The quality is fantastic. Hard to come by nowadays though. Also there is the IXOS one as can be found on this website.. £102 is a wee bit...

PSEXE definitely doesnt work under XP, it requires direct port access which XP prohibits.

CATFLAP works okay with the old driver they originally wrote too but the CPU utilization is huge..

PSEXE only works on DOS or in a DOS shell under 95/98/ME.
