An Amiga TestProgram for all Amigas. Remove hardware from the parallelport

when doing tests on this port and real interrupt testing. Don`t use

Amitestkit or DiagROM testplugs! Remove parallelport testplug when done

using the program.

Main features include:

OCS, ECS, AGA and SAGA screen testing

Audio testing

Sprite testing

Blitter testing

SAGA texturemapping testing

Joystick, Mouse and CD32(insert first), Vampire -joypad testing

testing in other tests, (interrupt and "CIA/"Akiko-TOD switching PAL/NTSC).

CD32 NVRAM testing (Not for ROM version will use nonvolatile.library)

CDTV NVRAM testing (experimental)

CDTV Card testing (experimental)

AutoConfig testing not working on real hardware? and only on ROM

Controlling one Amiga with another computer or receive debug data through a

nullmodem or a selfmade parallelport -cable. Serial Speed is 57600 (older

ROMs 115200) Baud. Works with WinUAE 5.1.0 in transmit only mode. For ROM

boot info you can also use a PC program that can receive ASCII over a COMport.

TestPackage include EPROM file single socket 68000(+)

TestPackage include EPROM files double sockets 68020(+)

TestPackage include EPROM file single socket 68020(+) CD32

TestPackage include EPROM files doublesocket A1000 (experimental!)

TestPackage include ROM files for emulators (524kb use 020+ and 64kb=A1000!)

!If ROM flash code greenscreens you can skip with LMB.

TestPackage include ISO file (can be an older version, no boot CDTV/CD32)

(For rev5 A500 Amigas you may need a modification for A17 and BYTE line ROM.

(you can make your own bootable ISO, use ISOCD from CD32-devkit)

TestPackage include QuickDisk (diskdrive tests only)

!Vampire users with problems can try to update the SAGA core

!If you use an older ROM version, use right version of VATestprogram. It may

give problems. Older versions of VATestprogram are included in the package.

Deep address test. It will erase and write to all memory locations for

selected address range, it will save and restore the memory before and

after the test. It can hit copperlist and screendata. The copperlist

will be turned off when in range. Lmb will exit test and give copperlist

back. Test will run a very long time for large address ranges. This

test will show any mirroring of memory locations which also can happen

with a short. Test will start to switch power LED while running, start

is slower with switching the LED.

Shortage Address test

Test will check between all address lines where data is written on one address

line and then read if the other address have the same number. With an address

short this will be the case. Old short test is removed that would only show

when there was an error between lines next to each other.

At diskdrive screen, program can try to find WordSync from disk when all SYNC

is disabled. The estimated Sync Number keeps jumping and sometimes get found

Going through menus with keyboard or a joystick it will use a buttoncounter

insted of a mouse memorymap, which give less problems when program is in bad

memory

Program will do a fast check on chipmem used for program and report if it is

failing, it will give an error message on the mainscreen, some tests make use

of the chipmem and may fail if the chipmem is not oke

CIA with "show counting" off will also not show counting for the combined

counting.

More polygons added for line&fill test

Some work on the guide of program

Adjust color screen has big color bars

on address $100/$102 and $101/$103.

-Can chooise between two modules and for the larger ROM versions 3 modules

-Turning off the mouse 'm key' will disable the use of a clickbuttonmap in

memory, so most of working memory is not needed in this case, only the memory

for the stack and variables are vital, you can use a joystick or keyboard to

select buttons.

!Diskcopy not working on real diskdrives, so it is disabled!

Update 5.2b

DMA speedtest, will loop CPU instructions to chipmem for 1 seconds and will

show the CPU mips speed while switching DMA channels with DMA load.

You can test how much CPU to chipmem speed is lost when there is other DMA

acitivity.

Pressing H for hires mode DMA speedtest

Pressing L for lowres mode DMA speedtest

Pressing S for superhires mode DMA speedtest

DiskDriveTests can work with Highdensity disks but Paula can not always read

enough data from disk for one Track, so it will not always read all sectors in

one readout.

DiskReadSpeed test, will test how many raw readblocks can be read from a disk

per second

WaitForIndex will make the readdiskdata tests wait for a rotation of the

diskmotor. Distance of found data in memorydump diskdrive should be more

stable.

DiskdriveMenu2 overhaul

RGB manual color adjustmentscreen with a mouseslider, RMB will show empty screen

with the color of color zero, also a RGB hexvalue.

Halfbrite test will switch to Hires with right button on AGA Amiga

ROMUpdate 28.4

Monitor function for AddressLine tests, will show data bits on lines. Can also

be used for a single address. Will show first address and bits set.

First addresslines that have no purpose to test on more data bits are removed

When putting zero addresslines, in monitor test it will not correct any

addresses from 16bits only 8bits alignment, it will also not block any

address ranges.

Poking in memory possible when pressing P in the addresstest it self, input

data to poke and then address, when enter press rightaway it will use the

base address from the address test it self.

Adding addresses to addresstest while running pressing A, you can fill in

an address and the bussize.

(Q)uick button next to monitor in addressscreen to start with only one address

NOCACHE cli command option added

CACHE cli command option added

NOPAD cli command to start CD32 mode with a mouse and not a joypad

NOCD32 cli command to not check for CD32. Unfortunately it gives a bus

exception when ussing the Akiko ID register readout on an A4000. To be sure

you can disable the CD32 check if you amigas hangs on booting of the program.

Program now also have a config file. You can type the words from the cli

commands in the text file. ; in front of the words dont work.

Protection on head move loop when no track zero sensor works!

Holding ESC 5 seconds on keyboardscreen will jump to mainscreen.

CD32 bug fix for hanging on CIA testscreen

Keyboard transmit error bug removed entering keyboardscreen with keyboard

EatFastmem Program will now load in chipmem so it can eat more.

VATQuickDisk Some bugs removed

ROMUpdate 28.2

Importand bug removed. Early exceptions caused a crash of program because no

pointers where ready at the beginning of the chipmem after rom overlay

switching!

Exception and early interrupt error colors longer on screen

When parmode is set on it will skip some of them customchipregisters such as

the color code to color 0 with an exception.

After parmode check and parmode was not set and you have an early exception it

will not output on the parport to avoid cia activity.

Moving some CIA settings to later in the program so there is more chance it can

start farther.

Update 5.0b

Customchip registerstest can be used over terminalmode but is slow

Less restrictions on diskdrive use in lock mode

Diskdrive screen button changes

Diskswaptest with better protection of stepping to highertrack on last track

Repeat option when reading all tracks. Disks with errors will keep trying,

this can remove abit of errors on disks, number 99 will keep trying for

unlimited amount.

Head Move Loop; will just send the heads up and down. It may remove some

dust inside a disk Max is 50 times.

Terminalscreen scrolling removed to gain speed

Terminalscreen will now clear a line after printing, needed when looping back

text with to much text on the screen(buffer).

Terminalscreen can now also show only hex numbers, configscreen have a switch

Terminal wil use alot more memory that is there anyways for the text on the

screen. More lines before it will loop back.

Program can use CLI arguments to not use exceptions and unlock the program

right away. These are AVOIDCHIP, UNLOCK and NOEXCEPTIONS you type behind the

cli command VATestprogram. These only work from ROM 2.04 and up. (use /?)

NOEXCEPTIONS will skip exception changes and storing and tests with exceptions!

Some CPUboards and running software may not like the use of some exceptions.

AVOIDCHIP will move the buttonscreen to fastmem if any, some tests will

use the buttonscreen memory also.

Harddisk readout and C2P test moved to buttonscreen memory.

Program will verify chipmem that is reserved for program and with a fault

will move the buttonscreen to fastmem if any.

More Easy to remove lockmode in aboutscreen

Small program added in C directory for removing most fastmem, the testprogram

can then run from chipmem only.

Bug fixes.

QuickDisk

Made alot smaller and can boot from disk. Is 9 diskblocks large.

ROMUpdate 28

Program placed in other memory sometimes show extra long click button bug

probably removed.

Unlocking in About screen more easy

!Extra tests added when no memory can be used ROM version!

-INT2 INT3 INT6 line high Text

-Longer waiting to cancel VBL waiting CIA timer tests

-Horizontal position counter test (VHPOSR)

-Color Screen Test with bitplane set open. Memory for screen data will run

without control.

-CPU writing to audio and bitplane data direct screen test

-Text added when pulsing in loop on chipmem bus at Address $400

Update 4.95b

CustomChip registers test can now also mark bits red when holding a different

number then expected (use RMB).

CustomChip registers test should now also work over terminalscreen

Pre set Address test chipmem A1200 rev1 added

Pre set Address test chipmem A2000 rev6 added

Auto DatalineText added for some of the Preset Addresstests (32bits&16bits

tests that test by each byte)

DiskdriveTests only program on adf for faster booting from disk and more

chance it can load from disk.

ROMUpdate

Less use of customchip registers on roomboot to avoid problems when custom

chip lines are bad.

Pre CPU exception errors output a letter on serial and parallelport

Pre IRQ activation will output a letter on serial and parallelport

Bug fixing

BPLPRI test bug removed

Hanging on Serial register int stuck bug removed

!Letter codes will wait abit and output a return also on serial and also

parallel if it is set on.

!Rom files added for A1000 64kb, will use bootstrapROM startaddress, these ROMs

have not been tested on a real A1000 and are experimental! Interrupts

probably work.
