Psion Series 3a

The Series 3a emulator is useful for developing, or testing, software for the Series 3a, Series 3c and Series 3mx. These machines are very similar, although the Series 3a -- and therefore also this emulator -- lacks support for IrDA and BackLight.

MS-DOS ONLY
The emulator will ONLY run under a true DOS environment, and not a shell to DOS from within Windows. It is recommended that you SUBST the M, A and B drives. Instructions are given in the installation text file, and there is an example BAT file to download and edit.

Beginners / Easy Install
In order to assist those who are not familiar with the installation of DOS software I have created a Zip Self-Extraction utility to run under 32-bit Windows. Simply double-click the installation file and copy the files to the C: drive, reboot to MS-DOS and type C:\S3A at the DOS prompt to run. Simple!
