Individual Computers Indivision ECS V4 Short Manual

Download this 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 emphasise that

installing the product in an Amiga is very complicated. The installation steps require a

lot of experience and skills. Please read this manual throughly to ascertain if you can

perform the installation. If you have any doubts regarding installation, please seek help

from an expert.

Please read this guide carefully before commencing installation. Ensure you take

suitable anti-static precautions. Serious damage may result from failure to accurately

follow this guide. Individual Computers cannot be held responsible for incorrect

installation of this product, including bent/broken pins, damaged motherboard or

damage to the Indivision ECS V4 unit itself.

Open the computer and remove everything that may cover the Denise-chip, such as

Zorro- cards or the RF-shield.

For installation in A3000T, A1000 and A600, additional parts are requried that are not

included in the normal Indivisino ECS V4 package. For installation in an A3000, another

48-pin socket is needed to raise the flickerfixer, for A1000 models we have an adapter

that allows installation on the Paula-socket, and for the A600, you'll need our memory

expansion A604n. Find out more in the Wiki article linked above.

This short manual only contains pictures for installation in

an A500 computer. For other target systems like A600,

A1000, A2000, A3000(T) and CDTV, please look at the

pictures that we have published in our Wiki:

Page 1 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 emphasise that installing the product in an Amiga is very complicated. The installation steps require a lot of experience and skills.
Page 2 Indivision ECS V4 is trying to avoid as many obstacles as possible in as many Amiga models as possible. However, a fully universal shape is impossible due to the diversity in design of Amiga revisions, so a few motherboard revisions require modifications to accommodate Indivision ECS V4.
Page 3 The Denise chip is extremely delicate, and pins easily bend or break away. Keep the chip in a safe place; it is not required any more while Indivision ECS V4 is in use. Carefully insert the flickerfixer into the empty socket. The notch in the socket must match with the print on the flicker fixer.
Page 4 You can choose almost any screenmode by using the screenmode application in the Amiga Workbench’s Prefs drawer. Currently, there is only a single exception: A2024- screenmodes are currently not supported by Indivision ECS V4. These modes can only be used with a later update for Indivision ECS V4.
