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.
*CD32 will use joypad control on boot (hold lmb for 6 sec to use mouse)
*For master start terminal other Amiga will be slave automatic on mainscreen
TestPackage include EPROM file single socket 68000(+)
TestPackage include EPROM files double sockets 68020(+)
TestPackage include EPROM file single socket 68020(+) CD32

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
Diskdrive screen updates
ESC key can exit keyboardscreen
Extra VBR-table copy to chipmem before CIA switching overlay
Update 5.1b
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.

NTSC/PAL switch for counting used CIA tests
ROM startaddress text, memory test fixed
Module playing audio noise fix
MMU off button
Bug fixing and making program smaller
Update 1.6b
Horrible audio noise removed when switching on and off channels
Color registers test for none AGA made faster
Lots of screen glitching removed
Memory Test can detect all memory
MemoryTest can test all memory automaticly also in a loop
MemoryTest size quick button for setting memory size manual in a quicker way
Polygon test faster and double bufferd
Polygon test will draw more diffrent polygons
Bobs test have random bob on startup.
CIA show counting on PAL Amiga for 68000 now fast enough
RTC M64242B not done yet will give abit garbage
060FPU crashing removed on FPU test
Program smaller then previouse version
Update log 1.5b
RTC alot of changes for testing. Not 100% done, older RTC still needs work
take in account control of RTC is pretty direct.
TOD timer counter added to check if RTC is running about the right speed
RTC Clock Setting
RTC Small protection for wrong input
RTC AM/PM 24H mode. Program will not adjust RTC hour registers!
RTC Jumpstart
Small slow down between serial/parallel port switching and reading results.
Fix for A1200 users with slower logicport chip U29/U28.
Gayle int hanging fixed
Extra mode added for interrupt testing. You can now shutdown interrupts on
first activation, it will avoid hanging of interrupts.
Crash caushed by using frequency buttons fixed
Improved ICache Tesing, program will reroute with a faulty instruction and
instructions have to be more accurate or else it will fail the test.

option removed for now Invert CIAB button
Update log 1.2b
Better warning message parallelport
Bug fixing!
