A new register in the enhanced Agnus, BEAMCON0, provides a programmable signal generator. BEAMCON0 W A Beam counter control register Bit Use --- --- 15 14 HARDDIS Disable hardwired vertical/horizontal blank 13 LPENDIS Ignore latched pen value on vertical pos read 12 VARVBEN Use VBSTRT/STOP disable hard window stop 11 LOLDIS Disable long line/short line toggle 10 CSCBEN Composite sync redirection 9 VARVSYEN Variable vertical sync enable 8 VARHSYEN Variable horizontal sync enable 7 VARBEAMEN Variable beam counter comparator enable 6 DUAL Special ultra resolution mode enable 5 PAL Programmable pal mode enable 4 VARCSYEN Variable composite sync 3 BLANKEN Composite blank redirection 2 CSYTRUE Polarity control for C sync pin 1 VSYTRUE Polarity control for V sync pin 0 HSYTRUE Polarity control for H sync pin Warning: -------- Programmable changes between PAL and NTSC modes are new for V2.0. They rely on hardware sync and blank in the Agnus/Denise chip set to guarantee necessary signals for a correctly displayed picture. Other modes, such as VGA (31 KHz programmable mode) disable the hard stops on display sync and blank. Do not write to this register. Incorrectly writing directly to BEAMCON0 has the (remote) possibility of destroying your multisync monitor.
