Hi all-

I have the beginnings of a Proteus "plug in" that simulates the SX-28.   It currently executes SX-28 code within Proteus VMS just fine but I have not (yet) implemented the debug/single-step interface(s).  Here is the loose end:  My understanding is that the free/low-end Proteus versions are not really useful with simulations, especial with microprocessor simulations.  In addition, a license addition (which appears to be no-cost) is needed from LabCenter (suppliers of Proteus) to run external "plug ins" -- I had no problems getting a license addition from them.  I have connected switches, resistors and LEDs to this virtual SX-28, started the simulation -- and watched the SX-28 receive inputs and drive the outputs (in my simple test case, LEDs blinking).....

If there is someone who has a commercial-grade version of Proteus who is interested in running SX-28 code in their simulations, please contact me.

The SX-28 capability being used is the open-source SX-28 I have supplied at www.rwsenser.com.  I am in the process of adding "middleware" that connects this existing simulation/emulation code to VMS, using the Proteus VMS SDK.  The end result is a Windows DLL that Proteus calls from its "Models" directory.  I have to say that although I've only been using Proteus for about a month, I find I really like the way it works and what it can do.

Thanks,
RW Senser
