EricDeLee Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Running into problems with my mod that I was going to try last night. I'm looking at the chart on the back of the FB2 motherboard and it states domething like Pin 1 goes to A1, pin 12 goes to A0 and other pins go to things like D1 etc. Only problem: There are no spots marked with an A on my board... nor a D. I came home from the postponed tigers game last night to work on this... and hit a road block. So I tinned my wires and hopefully will get a response this by this evening (however, I may still head to the game) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came home from the postponed tigers game last night to work on this... and hit a road block. So I tinned my wires and hopefully will get a response this by this evening (however, I may still head to the game) Okay...need help. My FB2 mother board has this printout: 1=A7 2=A6 3=a5 4=a4 5=a3 6=a2 7=a1 8=a0 9=d0 10=d1 11=d2 12=gnd 13=d3 14=d4 15=d5 16=d6 17=d7 18=a12 19=a10 20=a11 21=a9 22=a8 23=5v 24=gnd I now assume that the numbers 1-24 are the pads on the FB2 mother board. Right? If that is the case... what does the A stand for and the D stand for? What part of the cart connector takes the A pads... and what part takes the D pads? Got a pinout?

The links to the manuals seem to be broken. Does anyone have any saved copies of these manuals? I just got a used flashback 2 and it did not come with the printed manual.

I have the original FB2 Instruction Manual booklet, not the online pdf. If you want, I could scan it for you. It'll be only 7 pages (not counting the technical credits and warranty pages.) It'll have to wait until I get home from work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiohead Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Atari Flashback 2 Manual Scan Here's the Megaupload link for my quick scan of the Atari Flashback 2 Instruction Manual by request. I did not include the final 5 pages which included Terms & Conditions, US & Canada Tech Support, Warranty & Liability Info and Copyright, or else the file size would be needlessly bigger. Enjoy it with the one you love! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Dastari Creel Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Ok, I have a feeling that I'm missing something obvious but with all the talk of Rev A, B, C, etc, how do I know what rev I have? IIRC I purchased my Flashback 2 sometime around 2006 or 2007 but where do I find which Rev that I have and then how do I determine which of the links on the first post in this thread are using the same board...?

doctorclu Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Picked up a Flashback 2 yesterday. Time to make the cartridge port mod. Didn't realize the Harmony Cart does not work with it. Is there any way to modify the FB2 to work with the Harmony? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akator Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 For those who are still looking to mod the AFB2, Jimmy Ipock sells both mod kits and pre-modded consoles. He does very nice work. https://flashback2.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
