Current Products May 1991 Phoenix Board AP1001 $945.00 * Postage and Packing within Australia. $20.00 . (Insurance by arrangement) The Phoenix Board is a complete replacement motherboard for the Amiga 1000, providing support for the 500 and 2000's best features, plus others not available on any Amiga. It would be impossible to do justice to the power of the Phoenix Board here - please contact us for a copy of the full description. The following is a list of the features of the Phoenix Board. Using some of these may require you to put the board in a larger box. 2Mb RAM on the Motherboard Autobooting SCSI Port with Software Drive Swap Switch Kickstart Swap Switch 68881/68882 Socket A2000 Expansion Slot A2000 Video Slot Options 8Mb Memory Daughterboard 0k AP1001-D $250.00 PAL Cable Set AP1001-PC $30.00 1" High Quantum SCSI H/Drive AP1001-SD includes AP1001-BK 52Meg $699.00 105Meg $1299.00 Mounting Kit for 1" Hard Drive AP1001-BK $45.00 includes Brackets, Data & Power Cables Due to back orders for this product, deposits are being accepted to secure places in the order queue. * Please contact us for the Overseas postage rates. 8 Megabyte External Memory Board (A1000) AP1800 This memory board minimizes power consumption and bus loading. The AP1800 is oriented vertically, and mounts directly onto the A1000 with a bus passthrough. The board features an auto-configure disable switch for use with games and other programs which fail with expanded memory. (all boards contain sockets for the full 8Mb): A disk containing a comprehensive memory test program and other utilities is supplied with all boards. If your board is ordered with less than 2Megs populated you will need to purchase a PAL upgrade ($30.00) at a later date in order to recognise the extra memory over 2Megs. 1 Megabyte AP1800-1 $399.00 2 Megabyte AP1800-2 $499.00 4 Megabyte AP1800-4 $699.00 8 Megabyte AP1800-8 $999.00 Kickstart in ROM for Amiga 1000 AP1050 Are you sick of waiting for Kickstart to load from disk? This modification includes Kickstart in four EPROMs, which has the pleasant side-effect of increasing available memory by 256K. We supply Kickstart 1.3 standard, but can use any Kickstart you give us. Included is a switch which allows you to revert to loading Kickstart from disk, if required. Kit Form AP1050 $110.00 Note: Installation of this kit is difficult, and involves desoldering of multi-layer boards. Unless you are experienced in work of this nature, do NOT undertake this task. 512 Kbyte Internal Memory Board AP501 This memory board is a direct replacement for Commodore's A501(for all A500s), but is physically smaller and uses much less power. A disable switch (which can be mounted anywhere on the case) is included with all configurations for use with games and other programs which fail with expanded memory. With switch, without Clock AP501-NC $85.00 With switch and Clock AP501-C $105.00 Internal Memory Switch for A500 AP505 Kit Form AP505 $30.00 Installed and Tested AP505-I $50.00 Many games, particularly older ones, fail to run with expanded memory; this switch causes your Amiga to ignore the internal 512K memory cartridge. Kickstart Swap Board for Amiga AP510 Kit Form AP510 $30.00 Installed and Tested AP510-I $60.00 If you've ever wanted to use an early version of Kickstart to run an old game or other program, this is what you need. It's a small board containing sockets for any two Kickstart ROMs (one of which is usually the ROM supplied with your machine) which plugs into the ROM socket in your 500/2000 and is connected to a switch which can be mounted anywhere you choose. Please note - Installation of this Kit by unauthorised people voids any warranty normally associated with this product. Audio Digitiser - Mono AP420 $49.95 This is a mono digitiser (single channel only) designed for compactness and low price. Measuring only 2.5" by 1.5", it plugs directly into the parallel port (gender changer required for A1000), and offers the following: - RCA and miniature phono jacks, the most common connectors - a mic/line gain link and gain trimpot - a filter cutoff trimpot, to allow you to obtain the best possible quality with any sampling rate The digitiser is compatible with all sampling software, and allows a maximum sampling rate of approx. 20,000 samples/sec (10kHz audio bandwidth). Please note: This product is a complete working unit, but due to it's small size, has no case. I/O Board for Parallel Port AP400 $160.00 - 8 channels of 8-bit A/D conversion input - 8 digital input and 16 digital output lines - 7 relay driver circuits (relays not included) - Prototyping space (unconnected pads) for your own circuitry Included is a circuit diagram, full wiring instructions and a disk containing a test/demonstration program and a library of control routines which can be accessed via most Amiga languages, including BASIC, C and MODULA2. Our Parallel Port Adapter AP320-2 must be used for operation with the 500 and 2000. If used with the 500, or a heavy load is placed on the parallel port's power supply, an external 5V power supply should be used. Caution: The Amiga is vulnerable to damage if this board is used improperly. If you are unsure about your intended application please consult us first. Video Digitiser / Colour Splitter Unit AP410 $439.00 Our colour splitter/digitiser takes all the hassle out of digitizing from ANY colour video source (camera, VCR etc); the combination of colour splitter and DigiView *(tm) compatible digitiser in one box gives much better results than can be obtained using a separate colour splitter with your Digi-View. The unit features a saturation control and separate luminance and chroma inputs, which can be fed separately for S-VHS or linked for normal combined signals. The monochrome output of the colour splitter is available for stand-alone use or monitoring while digitizing. The colour to be digitised can be selected manually from the front panel, but if Digi-View 4*(tm) Software is used the Auto Select Module can be connected to the second joystick port and will cause the correct colour to be selected for both single-colour and automatic (all colours) digitizing. The unit is housed in a professional-style case approx. 9"x4"x2" (WxDxH). The external plugpack required to power it and a parallel port cable are included. Please note - If this product is to be used with an A1000 then a parallel port adapter is required (AP320-1) This product will be ready May/June 1991. * Tm - DigiView and DigiView 4 are registered trademarks of Newtek Accessories (all Amigas) The Drive Swap Switch allows you to boot from an external Floppy drive. This is DF1: with A500/A1000's and DF2: with A2000's. Please indicate your model computer when ordering. * Please note - Installation of this Kit by unauthorised people voids any warranty normally associated with this product. Installation by Phoenix Microtechnologies is $30.00 The Y drive double adaptor allows you to plug two external drives into one drive socket. Useful for drives without passthroughs. The Video / Disk Drive extension cable allows you to increase the distance between monitor or floppy drive without buying a completely new cable. The same cable works for both Disk Drives and Video cables. These Video Cables connect the Amiga to any monitor or television which has a scart input. This allows you to connect the Amiga to large screen televisions, and televisions which need a 5 volt signal to switch internally, (eg. Sony 1442AS, JVC 29" S-VHS, etc.). Drive Swap Switch 500,1000 AP310-1 $30.00 Drive Swap Switch 2000 AP310-2 $30.00 Y Drive Double Adapter AP360 $30.00 Video/Disk Drive Exten. Cable AP370 $30.00 Video Cable 1.8m AP380-l $40.00 Video Cable .9m AP380-s $30.00 Parallel Port Adapters AP320 1000 to 500/2000 (for 1000) AP320-1 $30.00 500/2000 to 1000 (for 500/2000) AP320-2 $30.00 These small adapters permit cables and peripherals designed for either type of parallel port to be used with the other (e.g. printers, Digi-View, audio digitisers). As well as changing the gender of the connector, they route all signals to the appropriate pins, including power and all control lines. Modem Cable $32.95 Printer Cable $19.95 Mouse/Joystick Extension Cable $9.95 Agiler Mouse - A high resolution replacement mouse for any Amiga computer. This mouse has real microswitches and is a delight to use. Flicker Filter - A perspex filter that fits over any 12"-14" monitor and aids in the reduction of interlace flicker. Can reduce apparent flicker by as much as 90% depending on the screen colours used, but an average reduction of 50% is usual. Modems - 2400 baud Maestro modems. The ZXR runs at 300/300, 1200/1200, 2400/2400 and 1200/75 baud rates, while the XR runs at 300/300, 1200/1200 and 2400/2400 baud rates. ZXR $399.00 XR $299.00 Canon BubbleJet Printers - All with Amiga drivers BJ10E - Little Squirt - A compact printer with 360 DPI resolution. Cut sheet feeder and NiCad battery available.

Directory Opus II - File Manager $50.00 Directory Opus I - File Manager $30.00 Directory Opus II - This is to our knowledge the most powerful and flexible file management program available for the Amiga. It uses a custom screen, allowing for full colour control, and displays two directories simultaneously. Aside from facilities common to most file management programs, you can: - program your own custom gadgets and menus - display text files, pictures and icons and run programs simply by double-clicking (Directory Opus determines the file type) - format, install, copy and relabel floppy disks - select files by standard wildcard matching - apply most operations to directories recursively - encrypt files using a password key - search multiple files or directories for strings - Fully ARexx, Workbench V2.0 and A3000 compatible Directory Opus has full online help for all functions, and can be converted to a small window on the Workbench screen to save memory when not in use. We have been using Directory Opus on all our Amigas for some time now, and can vouch for its reliability and stability. Directory Opus I - This is a scaled down version of Directory Opus I and is not Workbench V2.0 or A3000 compatible. It is not ARexx capable and uses fewer Custom Gadgets and more Menus. Directory Opus was written by Jonathan Potter. Public Domain $5.00 Phoenix Microtechnologies Keeps a public domain library with all the latest Fish Disks. These disks are available over the counter or by post. MegaDOS $19.00 This is a disk containing Workbench and CLI tutorials and explanations. It is like an AmigaDOS manual only better. All the CLI commands are explained in plain english and the tutorials are easy to follow. This is the quickest way to learn to harness the full power of the Amiga computer. MegaDisc $19.00 This is an all Australian Magazine on a disk. It is released every month and contains articles, reviews, and programs for beginner and expert alike. JumpDisk $13.00 This is an American Magazine on a disk. It is released every month and contains articles, reviews, and programs from overseas. Keep up with the developments in USA and Europe.

CAD - Computer Aided Design DynaCADD - This is the program taking USA and Canada by storm. The first fully featured CAD package for the Amiga computer. Blindingly fast to use with a user friendly interface. This is not just a port of the IBM version, but a complete rewrite to produce the best speed, but leave the interface as close to the IBM version as possible. (The IBM version is also mouse driven and is functionally the same as the Amiga version). If you have used the IBM version then you can use the Amiga version without relearning, and vice versa. To run the IBM version as fast as the Amiga version on an A3000, you need a 486 machine. An Amiga with an Accelerator, Hard Drive and 2Meg is advisable, but it does work on a floppy based A500 with 1Meg. The software automatically installs on your system by checking to see which CPU/Co-Processor combination you have (68000, 68020/68881/68882 or 68030/68882), and installing the version to best suit that CPU/Co-Processor combination. This is a fully professional piece of software. It was designed purely with the professional in mind. It is a fraction of the price of comparable CAD packages (eg. AutoCAD) in the IBM world, and has no comparison in the Amiga world. A demo version is available for $10.00. The demo version comes on three disks and includes a demo version of the manual also. Please phone, fax or write for a copy of the demo version. Postage and Packing For most items the postage and Packaging is $10.00, unless listed below.
