Hi
I just thought of something else which to me is very important with the Z4
bus; and that is - is the -12v line delivered by the P8 and P9 power
connectors; or does the A1200 motherboard have to be powered some other way?
The Ateo Bus I'm using now, has the P8 and P9s in the actual bus slot card,
and a -12v flying lead goes up to the trapdoor connection card, and into the
A1200T there, the 5v and 12v, GND (iirc) are delivered by a 3.5" floppy
power connector.
So how does the A1200 get powered with the Z4 as well, because the loss of
my -12v means that:
a.) No serial comms, d'oh! :-(
b.) No Amiga audio, woah now that is bad!
c.) I ain't got another brick to butcher, rather like the old A500+ one I
/did/ have ;)
Anyway - thanks for your time again! :)
Regards
Nick.
