Openspand with other ZX Add-ons
The ZX and OpenSpand busses can only support finite loads on them. You risk damaging your ZX, your OpenSpand, or both if you connect additional devices to them.
Development of this OpenSpand Guide was just started in September 2026 and little time has been spend reaching out to Timex/Sinclair forums to gather compatibility information.
