Hiya Ratte,

Look good but I still don't know why Jens/AmigaKit didn't want to pick this one up???


have not been following your project. when you say automatic switch is this done *completely* in hardware?

or in-order to operate the above unit automatically you need to install software for it to operate automatically?

what are the three contact pins for?

the three pins are Select, Vcc , GND, all these lines are going to a 8520 CIA
you need a little tool in the startup-sequence, this tool detects the currently activ screenmode and controles the switch.

early prototype for softwaredevelopment


very impressive and this is what i want to see, more hardware workarounds. i have some other great ideas like wireless control module that plugs into the A1200 motherboard ten pin connector near the mouse port. this ten pin connector is on all A1200 motherboard. i also have a GPRS/3G module with GPS that needs to be install. (wireless internet)
