bohoki Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 15. It's handy to consider the keypad in a matrix format. Pin # 4 3 2 1 7 Start 1 2 3 6 Pause 4 5 6 5 Reset 7 8 9 8 ? * 0 # does anything use the secret button at pin 4 and 8 connection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prodos8 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I don't think it does anything on any game. I once made an adapter with a 4x4 matrix keypad (the fourth column was A-D) and the D button didn't do anything on the 5200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Yep, I can confirm that. I was worried that the D button would crash the system, but nope, it's just ignored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that one went into hyperspace if you press that key combination. I have that key available all the time since I remapped the 2,5,8 into Start, Pause, Reset on a Atari 2600 keyboard controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
