#bridgeboard
5 messages in this thread
I installed my AMIGA 2000 bridgboard and it works generally as planned, but I
wondered if I'm supposed to have to do something special about the audio
output. With the standard installation, I get no sound. Any help from those
with brideboards??

Pete,
You have to add a speaker to the 2 pins on the BridgeBoard. It doesn't
use the Amiga's sound system. Unfortunately, the only place it's mentioned is
on page #68 of the manual where it says J2 is used for an external speaker.
To get a better idea where the connector is, look on page #63. The
actual 2 pins are very hard to see, but if you look directly under the last 2
0's in the word '2000' in the text above the picture, you can barely make out
the 2 pins. In any case, if you have the bridge board in your hand, the 2 pins
will be readily visible if you look in the same spot.

Thanks for the confirmation of my fears. I saw the mention of the jumpers for
the speaker, but it would be nice if the manual specifically stated that the
sound MUST go through an external speaker. I'll be interested in the answers
Darrell Jones gets since he seems to have tried the external speaker without
success.
Thanks again…I guess it's just one more confirmation that I should stick to
the AMIGA side and use the bridgeboard for a trade-in on a hard disk.

Pete,
See message 97253, I think I've got an answer for everyone on that
subject (speaker).

You can run the audio output from the 2 pin header it's on to one of the pins
on the 2000 motherboard over on the serial header. I don't have my schematics
here or I could tell you the specifics.
