back into cdi and have a question on the 370

kstyle25 · Post by **kstyle25** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 12:01 am

I just started feeling nostalgic recently and have gotten back into the CDI scene. I usually hang out at the ASSEMbler boards if I'm on a board.

I won a portable 370 today on eBay (10.00 with accessories and case, can you believe it!) and I was wondering if there is a true controller port on the unit or if it's primarily a player with minimal game functionality. I can't seem to remember from what I've read in the past and can't seem to find the info in the usual places.

Thanks
J

btw...looking forward to meeting you all.

I think it does, look:

corresponding to:

1. Speaker
2. Power indicator
3. Infrared receiver
4. Battery indicator
5. Open/close
6. Volume control
7. Headphone connector
8. Input 1 connector
9. Audio R+L connector
10. Video connector
11. S-Video connector
12. Battery
13. Extern A/V connector
14. Battery connector
15. AC power connector
16. Eject button for batttery
17. Input 2 connector
18. PAL/NTSC switch

So, number 8 and 17, that's about the first and second controller port. But, I don't have a 370 so it's just what I guess from the manual info!

By the way, Welcome!

thanks....I couldn't find that view anywhere. I appreciate the welcome. I'm looking forward to hanging out and hopefully contributing to the board.

I just won one but paid $31, still a good deal. Probably the same seller.

Does the CD-I 370 suffer from the dead 'battery' issue?

yeah...I guess, as both of my batteries are dead. The system from that seller is great. Everything is perfect and with a hard case with custom inserts that's worth 50.00 alone. You'll be pleased I believe.

I got it in today. The system is in excellent shape. And, the case is very nice.

I assume you mean the timekeeper battery? Then no, there's no such timekeeper in the 370 and the battery that powers the nvram can be replaced.
