@randomvariate Augh... sorry, I changed email accounts and now I have like 5 months of backlogged comments :) Anyway, I got pulled away on a couple other projects so it's been left pretty much alone, but I should probably come back to it some day. The reception was sort of "it's an interesting novelty, but so what." Of course, that never stopped me before. ;)
@eminentband Reading the bytes is the first challenge. Then it's "just" a matter of decoding them -- as you can see I still have a ways to go. It's a pattern of control and ASCII-type bytes. My guess is flashing and dots are flags in there but I haven't verified. Haven't had time to check Colin Fraser's disassembly but that might help. If you find out more let me know. :) Also my LCD is too slow to drive directly from the data, I needed to buffer it. Let me know how you're coming!
Good work fela. Would like to convert my MKS-70 if poss - where would I start?
