Peripherals preferences

The Peripherals pane of Fuse preferences lets you configure the peripherals which Fuse will consider to be attached to the emulated machines.

Mass storage/ROM interface options

OPTION
DESCRIPTION
None If this option is selected, Fuse will not emulate any mass storage device (except for the integrated disk devices on the +3, Pentagon and Scorpion).
Interface I If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Sinclair Interface I, and allow microdrive cartridges to be inserted and removed via the Media > Microdrive menus.
Simple 8-bit IDE If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the simple 8-bit IDE interface as used by the Spectrum +3e, and allow hard disks to be connected and disconnected via the Media > IDE menu.
ZXATASP interface If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the ZXATASP interface, which provides both additional RAM and an IDE interface. See the ZXATASP and ZXCF Emulation section for more details.
ZXCF interface If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the ZXCF interface, which provides both additional RAM and a CompactFlash interface. See the ZXATASP and ZXCF Emulation section for more details.
DivIDE interface If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the DivIDE interface, which provides both additional RAM and a IDE interface. See the DivIDE Emulation section for more details.
+D interface If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the +D interface, which provides both a floppy drive and a printer interface. See the +D Emulation section for more details.
Beta 128
If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Beta 128 interface, which provides a floppy drive interface. See the Beta 128 Emulation section for more details. Beta 128 emulation is enabled for the Pentagon and Scorpion machines regardless of this option.
Opus Discovery
If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Opus Discovery interface, which provides both a floppy drive and a printer interface. See the Opus Discovery Emulation section for more details.
DISCiPLE
If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the DISCiPLE interface, which provides both a floppy drive and a printer interface. See the DISCiPLE Emulation section for more details.
Spectranet
If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Spectranet interface, which provides an ethernet interface for the Spectrum. See the Spectranet Emulation section for more details.
Didaktik 80 interface
If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Didaktik 80 (or Didaktik 40) interface.  See the Didaktik 80 Emulation section for more details.
Currah µSource
If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Currah µSource interface. See the World of Spectrum Infoseek web page at http://www.worldofspectrum.org/infoseekid.cgi?id=1000080 for the manual.
The required ROM file is not supplied with Fuse for Mac OS X and so must be installed before the interface can be used. The expected file is an 8KB dump of the interface ROM named usource.rom and placed in the Fuse packages Contents/Resources directory.

+3 options

OPTION DESCRIPTION
+3 Detect Speedlock Specify whether the +3 drives try to detect Speedlock protected disks, and emulate `weak' sectors. If the disk image file (EDSK or UDI) contains weak sector data, than Speedlock detection is automatically omitted. See the Weak Disk Data section for more details.

Beta 128 options

OPTION DESCRIPTION
Beta autoboot in 48K When Beta 128 emulation is enabled and a 48K or TC2048 machine is being emulated, this option controls whether the machine boots directly into the TR-DOS system. See the Beta 128 Emulation section for more details.

DivIDE options

OPTION DESCRIPTION
DivIDE write protect This option controls the state of the DivIDE EEPROM write protect jumper (E). See the DivIDE Emulation section for more details.

Interface I options

OPTION DESCRIPTION
MDR cartridge len This option controls the number of blocks in a new microdrive cartridge. If the value smaller than 4 or greater than 254 Fuse assumes 4 or 254.

Spectranet options

OPTION DESCRIPTION
Spectranet disable This option controls the state of the Spectranet automatic page-in jumper (J2). See the Spectranet Emulation section for more details.

ZXATASP options

OPTION DESCRIPTION
ZXATASP upload This option controls the state of the ZXATASP upload jumper. See the ZXATASP and ZXCF Emulation section for more details.
ZXATASP write protect This option controls the state of the ZXATASP write protect jumper. See the ZXATASP and ZXCF Emulation section for more details.

ZXCF options

OPTION DESCRIPTION
ZXCF upload This option controls the state of the ZXCF upload jumper. See the ZXATASP and ZXCF Emulation section for more details.

Printer options

See the Printer Emulation section for more details.

OPTION DESCRIPTION

Emulate printers

Specify whether emulation should include a printer.

Emulate ZX Printer

If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the ZX Printer.
Graphic Output File Specify the file name and location for the printer graphics output file.
Text Output File Specify the file name and location for the printer text output file

External sound interface options

OPTION
DESCRIPTION
None If this option is selected, Fuse will not emulate any external sound interface.
Fuller If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Fuller Box AY sound and joystick interface. This emulation is only available for the 16k, 48k and TC2048 machines.
Melodik If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Melodik AY sound interface. These interfaces and many similar ones were produced to make the 48K Spectrum compatible with the same AY music as the 128K Spectrum. This emulation is only  available  for  the  16k,  48k  and  TC2048 machines.
SpecDrum If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Cheetah SpecDrum sound interface.  See the World of Spectrum Infoseek web page for manuals, software and more. This emulation is only available for
the 48k, 128k and TC2048 machines.
