Need advise for A1200 clock port upgrage.
« on: March 10, 2005, 08:05:58 PM »
Hi all,

How do you upgrade half length clock port on Amiga 1200 motherboard?

I only have the left part on my motherboard, the right part is missing and I need it to connect the Subway USB adapter.

Thank you

Ok thank you for all the replies.

My motherboard revision is 1D and strangly enough, the left connector is marked P9B instead of P9A.

Here a picture of my clock port connector.



In the Subway USB user manual they say; "if only the left part of your clock port connector is equipped contact your dealer for an upgrade" :-)

The manual is correct, there should be 22 pins on the RIGHT hand side of the connector.


Yes, and you proved it! :lol: and thanks for all your answers. I will let you know if I can't find a DIL header as you specified in the email. I will order one from you and probably many many other things! :-D

The only worry I have is, will it be difficult to fix on the motherboard?

Hi guys! I found the missing part at electronic store saturday and manage to fix it without too many problems.

Now I have my 1200 equipped with 4 USB ports! :-)

The Subway USB adapter is great! Almost every USB devices I tried like flash card reader, USB key, mouse, keyboard was working perfectly. Only my Wacom Graphire Tablet doesn't work :-( The tablet freeze only few seconds after you start using it. Too bad, I'd really like to use it with Brilliance and Photogenic.

The Poseidon USB stack that came with the adapter is a very nice piece of software. It's always impress me what Amiga programmers can do.

Thanks for the help!
