H5 SIMM socket issues
Re: H5 SIMM socket issues
Hi, has anyone had any success with MIDI output. This is a big deal for me as it's prime reason I got my original Atari. On the H5 I can't get it working at all with equipment that works fine with an original Atari . Is there something I'm missing like a jumper setting maybe? Has anyone tested MIDI on an H5 please?

Midi works fine on the H5. I posted in your other topic to check the orientation of the optocoupler and that its the correct type and of course not faulty.SciFi9000 wrote: Fri Oct 09, 2026 2:12 pm Hi, has anyone had any success with MIDI output.

If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Swapped the ACIA chips ? Checked for bent pins ?
Re: H5 SIMM socket issues
Oh sorry I didn't see your reply. I was thinking it may be upside down (didn't look yet) just based on the fact that if one item was upsidedown.. well, it could be more. Was yours from the same batch I wonder? If it was it should be the same.
Re: H5 SIMM socket issues
There's only been one batch of C5B. Looking at my build blog the opto is in the right way around.
Re: H5 SIMM socket issues
Ahh yes the 6850 chips. Great call. Will test tomorrow. I didn't realise that those were the chips responsible for MIDI until I just looked them up. Cheers and here's hoping. I have a spare
