1.4 Turning the freezer on

READY

is displayed, simply press the “

Freeze

” button on the upper right to display

the freezer main menu. If nothing happens, the freezer is attached poorly, the power

supply wire (if present) is not connected correctly or the freezer broke down. By pressing

the

[SPACE]

key you can return from the freezer main menu to the BASIC. Now verify

if BASIC reacts to keyboard input. If this is not the case, then there is a problem. If

everything worked ﬁne up to this point the freezer is ready.

If the freezer does not work correctly for any reason, send a letter or e-mail with the

description of the symptoms ﬁrst before sending the freezer back. Because of the 100%

ﬁnal assembly tests of every freezer it is practically impossible that the problem is due to

the freezer. Most likely the assembly or the Atari itself are the cause for the problem. It is

better to rule out these possible reasons before sending the freezer back for veriﬁcation.

This prevents unnecessary delays and costs.

1.4.3 Creating the system disk

Right after the successful installation of the

TURBO FREEZER

a system disk should be

created. The system disk contains the ﬂash program for writing to the ﬂash ROM from

the Atari and the freezer software. With this disk the

TURBO FREEZER

can be reset

at any time to its state at delivery. In the state at delivery the ﬂash ROM contains the

software required for creating the system disk as follows:

1. Switch the Atari oﬀ and connect a disk drive.

2. Turn the “CartEmu” switch right to activate the cartridge emulation.

3. After switching the Atari on the menu of the cartridge emulation should appear.

4. Press [D] to load the default settings and conﬁrm them with [RETURN].

Now you are in the “

TURBO FREEZER

System Disk Writer” software. Insert an

empty disk in the disk drive “D1:” and press

[RETURN]

. The software now formats

the disk in medium density and writes the freezer software. If an error occurs (

e. g.

due to a disk defect), the message

ERROR

is displayed and you have to insert a new

disk and restart the program. To this end simply conﬁrm the

restart program?

prompt with

[Y]

. To be on the safe side, a second copy of the system disk should

be created. Write protect this second copy and store it in a safe location.

After creating the system disk successfully, switch the Atari oﬀ and turn the

“CartEmu” switch back (to the left) again to its original position.

If anything goes wrong and you lose the system disk or overwrite it accidentally (yes,

things like that can happen sometimes), there still is the option to download an ATR disk
