Introduction¶

For now please see the general core manual on the main page.

Power requirements¶

USB B 5V input. 500mA is enough but I'd go with 1-2A to give some extra for any connected devices.

SD card setup¶

The OS and basic rom are loaded from the flash chip in the new cores, this can still be overridden by the sd card as discussed here:

On the v2 board svideo and composite are output via the vga connector:

For svideo luma is on the green output and chroma on the blue output.
For composite luma is on the green output.

Keyboard mapping¶

The keyboard is mapped to match the standard Atari keyboard layout. It assumes you are using either an ISO or ANSI keyboard. I highly recommend buying stickers from here: https://www.4keyboard.com/commodore/591-2840-commodore-atari-non-transparent-keyboard-stickers.html
For an ISO keyboard:
