A. EXAMPLE SETUP
The following diagram shows an ATARI® 800™ connected to an
RS-232 WIFI MODEM through an ATARI 850™ Interface Module. A
common WIFI modem is based on the ESP8266 micro-controller, and
provides a connection to the Internet, so that PLATO services can be
accessed.
As can be seen from the diagram:
• The PLATOTERM cartridge is inserted into the ATARI® computer.
• The ATARI® 850™ Interface Module is attached via the PERIPHER-
AL connector.
• The WIFI MODEM is attached via a CX87 MODEM cable to SERIAL
INTERFACE PORT 1.
