## Using ! HP 2100 MTS
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
|
|
If you have not already installed SIMH HP 2100 emulator, see [the VirtualHub Setup tutorial on how to do so](https://setup.virtualhub.eu.org/simh-hp2100/) on Linux and Windows.
|
|
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
Extract the kit you downloaded. Inside you will find several files. Create a folder somewhere to store the files for this VM and move the file named `MTS.tape` into it. Open the `mtgen` folder inside the extracted folder and move the file called `conf_bootstrap.abs` to the VM folder.
|
|
|
|
Now we will create a config file for our VM. Create a text file called `hp2100.ini` with the following content in the VM folder:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
set cpu 2116
|
|
set cpu 16k
|
|
set cpu eau
|
|
set dpd dis
|
|
set drd dis
|
|
set msd dis
|
|
set mtd dis
|
|
set lps dis
|
|
set ptr sc=21
|
|
set ptp sc=22
|
|
set tty sc=14
|
|
set tty autolf
|
|
set lpt sc=16
|
|
set msd sc=26
|
|
set msd ena
|
|
set clk sc=13
|
|
att -n lpt lpt.txt
|
|
att msc MTS.tape
|
|
att ptr conf_bootstrap.abs
|
|
d s 0
|
|
boot ptr
|
|
d s 100000
|
|
go 100 until "*SET ALL SWITCH REGISTER BITS TO ZERO(0)."
|
|
d s 0
|
|
go
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now open a terminal and move to the VM folder. Run the following command to start the emulator:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
hp2100
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
That's it! We used ! HP 2100 MTS. We can create a shell script to make it easy to launch the VM.
|
|
|
|
### Linux
|
|
|
|
Create a file called `HP-2100-MTS.sh` with the following content:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
hp2100
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now make the file executable:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
chmod +x HP-2100-MTS.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now you can start the VM using the shell script. For example, on KDE you can right-click the file and choose `Run in Konsole` or on GNOME, where you can right-click the file and choose `Run as executable`. The VM will start.
|
|
|
|
See the [manuals section](/1970s/1971/hp2100mts/#manuals) on the [main ! HP 2100 MTS page](/1970s/1971/hp2100mts/) to learn how to use it.
|
|
|
|
### Windows
|
|
|
|
Create a file called `HP-2100-MTS.bat` with the following content:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
hp2100
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now you can start the VM by double-clicking the shell script. See the [manuals section](/1970s/1971/hp2100mts/#manuals) on the [main ! HP 2100 MTS page](/1970s/1971/hp2100mts/) to learn how to use it.
