JL>Well, my TransWarp //e arrived yesterday. Plugged it in and it works
JL>great! It too came without any documentation, so just for
JL>completeness, what are the settings for the 2 x 8 dip switches?
JL>Mine is a Rev 1.3, (c) 1985, and has a 65c02p4 chip.
JL>Switches are as follows, assuming bank 1 is lower left furthest from
JL>the edge connector.
JL>Bank1 Bank2
JL>1 closed 1 open
JL>2 closed 2 closed
JL>3 closed 3 closed
JL>4 closed 4 closed
JL>5 closed 5 open
JL>6 closed 6 open
JL>7 closed 7 closed
JL>8 open 8 open
Bank1: Sw 1-7 -> Change to OPEN if there is a memory card that uses the
"Langauge Card bank switching technique". {Normally CLOSED}
Bank1: Sw 1-7 -> Change to OPEN if the plug in card must be accessed at 1 MHz
{Normally CLOSED. OPEN for Floppy diskette controllers}
Switch 8 on both Banks: Sets the power up speed of Transwarp
Bank1 Bank2
3.6 MHz OPEN OPEN <<Normal>>
1.7 MHz CLOSED OPEN
1 MHz OPEN CLOSED
1 MHz CLOSED CLOSED
JL>Is there a way of disabling it for games (i.e. key press at
JL>power-up/re-boot?)
Press <Esc> at power-up will disable Transwarp completely until the next power
off/on cycle.
A better way is to write a 01 to $C074. This will slow Transwarp down to 1
MHz without disabling it completely. Writing a 00 to $C074 will restore
Transwarp to it's 'fast' speed.
