Title: Does a Clock Port doubler exist?
Post by: lurkist on September 01, 2006, 10:34:20 PM

If so, where to buy, what software required.

Many thanks,

Been answerred in the past, there's a hartware called QuaddddroPort taking 1 clockport and making it into 4.

@Brian

He clearly asked for a port doubler, NOT a quadrupler. Stop being a troll!!

I own four of these quaddddroports, but they are currently broken.

Anyone knows for sure if they can work with something else than Ioblix parallel or serial ports? Catweasel, Subway and Delfina combination for instance?

i used mine with a delfina and a subway the thing is that the clockport dont have the speed to suport both units at the same time so not worth the time unless you disable enable all the time..

If your system is towered you could try the Z4 Zorro busboard. It has 4 clockports on it.

It is towered, but no Zorro busboard, they are hard to find.
I wouldn't really need to use them simultaneously, so no speed issue.

@ Xanxi - Is there much circuitry on this quaddddroport? (What could be broken on your four?)

Cheers

No there is few circuitery. You can see some pics on the bboah.

I have sent two of them to AmigaCenter for a diagnosis.
