Commodore FujiNet Quickstart Guide
FujiNet for Commodore is still under development and hardware is still in the experimental stage. FujiNet uses the IEC bus so building a prototype for testing is fairly simple, needing only 6 wires and an ESP32.
You need an ESP32-WROVER Devkit board (minimum 8MB Flash, 8MB PSRAM), a DIN 6 plug and some wire to connect them. We recommend using the official ESP32-DEVKITC-VE made by Espressif. We have also had success with the Lolin D32 Pro which also has an onboard MicroSD card socket. Pinouts are defined in software and it is easiest to match the pinout of our generic IEC board.
If you have a FujiApple Rev0 (FujiNet for Apple II) you can use it to test Commodore by building an adapter cable using the pinout below:
When configuring the firmware build, use build_board = fujiapple-iec.
You can follow the Board Bring Up Guide to install PlatformIO and build firmware for Commodore.
