  2644A MINI DATASTATION "HOW TO USE IT" TAPE
  [Files 1 and 2 missing, file 3 incomplete]

* The short reference card for the hp2644.
  As it is larger than DIN A4, I scanned each side in two
  halfs: left and right. Its coloured and 300dpi.


* Also: The games for the hp 2640 and 2644 terminals.

(In the moment it's just one).

On my hp2644-terminal I can load it from the tape drive
and you can start playing tennis.


Remember: The processor in the 2640 and 2644 is an Intel 8008


 
Loading those games from the tape is no problem:
Put the cartridge in the left drive, press <Blockmode> and
then <read>.


For the tennis game it is nice to have a display enhancement 
card with the line drawing characters installed.
But this is only an optical gimmick, the game runs without
this.
 
 

The files are in two different formats:
 
*.log is, what kermit produces with the 'log session'-
command. This are the files exactly as they are on my tapes. 
In this form there are partially very log lines, which make 
difficulties with some texteditors and serial linedrivers.

So I cut the lines in pieces, to get them in a length
shorter than 72 columns. I also added some instructions ahead
the files. 
These are the *.oct-files.
If the description of the binary-download for the hp-
terminals is correct, then <SPC>, <CR> and <LF>-characters
are ignored, and the files are equivalent.
 
 
 
 
I would be very interested in other games or applications 
for these terminals. And also, if they run on other terminals 
for example the 2640 or 2644B or others. I know there is a 
kermit-program for the 2647. But this definetly doesn't run  
on my 2648. Please email to
