Internal Setup
Battery
The Foenix uses an internal battery (CR2 FMX, CR2032 U/U+) to power the Real Time Clock chip. The battery is not presently required.
DIP Switches
The standard kernel interprets the DIP switches as follows:
- 1 - Boot options
- 2 - Boot options
- 3 - User definable
- 4 - User definable
- 5 - User definable
- 6 - off = 640x480; on = 800x600 (not yet implemented)
- 7 - Gamma correction on/off
- 8 - IDE Drive installed
Boot options:
| 2 | 1 | effect |
| off | off | Boot to BASIC |
| off | on | Boot from SD Card (not yet implemented) |
| on | off | Boot from floppy (not yet implemented) |
| on | on | Boot from HD (not yet implemented) |
Hard Drive Installation
The Foenix supports the installation of an internal hard-drive. You will need the following:
- A short IDE 44 Pin 2.5" laptop HDD Female-to-Female cable,eg:
- You will need Standoff, M3, 12mm high with male on one end, and female on the other
- M3 screws
FMX Enclosures
The Foenix may be purchased as a bare board or packaged in a 3D printed enclosure; see: https://c256foenix.com/
Printing your own Enclosure
You may also print your own; the official STL files are here:
In order to complete the enclosure, you will need inserts for plastic, M3/M2. You will need screws, and some Lexan cut out to complete the windows
Screws
The standard case uses the following screws:
- M2 Inserts: https://www.mcmaster.com/94510a360
- M3 Inserts: https://www.mcmaster.com/94510a030 (Fancy one)
- M3 Inserts: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01IYWTCWW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (Cheap one)
