Does somebody know if there is any software available for the Schneider RS232 interface (not Amstrad)? It came without any software and the 3-page manual only offeren a small BASIC type-in. I am wonmdering if that ever got any software support.

You could try Terminal-Star since it was also published by Schneider. It can be seen right next to the interface on this ad:

Schneider CPC 664 • X-MEM • Vortex F1-X Drive • CTM 644 • DMP 2160
Schneider CPC 6128 • Z-MEM • M4 Board • MultiPlay + Amiga Mouse • OSSC

Interested to hear what you achieve, I also have both items in my collection but never did anything with it so far. Fun fact: the housing comes from an overproduction of a cartridge-style BTX module for Schneider TV sets :)

I have to check if I have a serial cable somewhere and try to connect to a Windows XP PC. I thought I still have some, but probably they went away with the last move. 

After looking into Terminalstar I'm also not sure if it's really worth investing much time into it. It's extremely limited.

Da gibt's doch diese Textverarbeitung mit 999 Sachen (komm grad nicht auf deren Namen... StarTexter oder so?), die bedient die Schneider Z80 STI auch.

Das Schneider SIO Interface an sich ist cool! Die Z80 STI hab ich bei mir zu Haus rumliegen, wer mal eine braucht (als Ersatzteil) möge sich vertrauensvoll an mich wenden.

Was there any support/drivers for CP/M for this interface? I believe the Amstrad CP/M only supported their interface.

(I also have it lying around somewhere with a 300 baud acoustic coupler...)

Drivers were supplied by dedicated software, not the CP/M or Firmware.
