Indivision AGA 4000 / CD32 short manual

Dear customer,

thank you for purchasing a product from Individual Computers. We're sure that your new

flickerfixer will satisfy all your needs. However, we would like to emphasize that installing

the product in an Amiga 4000D or CD32 is not easy, and it requires some skills. Please

make sure that you have enough light at your desk!

Installing the flickerfixer should only be done by experienced persons. If you have never

opened your Amiga 4000D or CD32, you should get help from a technician.

Installation in an A4000 desktop:

Open the computer and remove all Zorro cards to get access to the mainboard. The board

of your A4000D is now lying in front of you like this:

The picture above marks the Lisa chip, which is responsible for the video output of the

Amiga. The socket of Indivision AGA is placed over top of this chip. The component side of

Indivision must face down for proper installation.

The computer must be placed on a stable, level surface. First, place the socket over the

Lisa chip, but do not push yet! Double-check that all pins line up properly. If the socket

should be tilted in any way, it might be destroyed by the pressure that must be applied.

The socket is in place if the board is level on the Lisa chip, but cannot be rotated any

more.

Your final step is to push the socket on the Lisa chip. You might need to push very hard,

but do not use any tools for this step! It is possible to apply the required pressure with

your thumbs.

Page 2 You should feel the socket clicking on the chip. Now you can plug in the VGA-cable to the side-connector of Indivision AGA, and route the cable to the back of your computer, for example to a metal bracket (not included). Now you can put any Zorro cards back into the slots.
Page 3 We highly recommend additional grounding of Indivision AGA. The grounding cable should never float unconnected inside your computer! As you can see in the pictures, a mounting screw of the A4000D or CD32 motherboard is very close, we recommend using that as the additional ground connection. Should you decide not to use the grounding cable, you should remove it completely from the computer, because it might damage other components if shorted to ground in operation.
