 This interface is compatible with the [[AMX Mouse]]. It reports mouse movements through joystick directions in the same way and uses the same method to read the mouse. The interface, however, only supports a single fire/mouse button.
-Like the [[AMX Mouse]] it doesn't appear to suffer from keyboard clash and reports nothing for joystick 2. Pressing the right button on my Genius mouse does nothing, pressing the left button is the same as fire 1.

 The interface connects to the back of the CPC. It is claimed this is only necessary for 5V power but this is not confirmed.

+Looking at the pictures, the larger mouse interface pcb has "Amstard CPC6128 Mouse" written on it, while the smaller one appears to read "CPC464 Mouse".
 Holding the PCB so that the mouse port is to the top-right, the following, which is not easy to see from the photos,  is written on the PCB:
