I didn't get the dip switch tests running, those are remnants from the
parent program that was originally for Galaga, I modified it to run in
Pacman boards and hadn't fixed the dips. Like I say, it is rough, but
most of it works...
Alternate names etc, that is part of the ROM signature, could be tested
if the pads are done, but is it important?
Speed mode is part of the signature, could auto-find it, but haven't
gotten that far.
Haven't used the frequency counter, don't know how to...

Could you just have the tester set the dips for
ALL ON, read them then reset them to ALL OFF & read again rather than
individually? (laziness...)
Would you also check alternate names or
alternate difficulty solder pads?
Instead of asking for speed mode, couldn't you
just check that byte? and then condition the ROM checksum based on
that?
Has anyone tried the Frequency counter function
in the Fluke compiler software? I was wondering if it was
usefull?
Thanks,
