NoahsMyBro Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 A) Is there any manual online somewhere for the 5200 Diags cart included on the menu-driven 5200 multicart? Can the diags cart be used to test the various inputs of the controllers? B) I've recently repaired a previously fried 5200 (see earlier thread). The colors are somewhat off. Is there a pot to adjust the colors? Is it the large pot on the lower-right of the motherboard, near controller port 4? Thanks, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 A) Don't know about a manual for it and as far as I know the Diagnostic cart requires 2 loopback boards of which one only works on the 4 port (I have the controller port loopback board). I do know though that Pete's Test Cartridge has a controller test built in and it also has a couple of color calibration screens. B) I believe there are 2 potentiometers and yes the big red one is one of them. If you are interested in a Pete cart, drop me a PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 The 5200 diag cart manual is included in the 5200 service manual which isn't on the web anywhere, as far as I know. Yes, the diag cart can test the controller except the upper fire buttons. Mitch http://atari7800.atari.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you're certainly welcome to scan all of the hundred or so double sided pages, if you happen to own a copy.
