Need Info On Pause Button Mod For Colecovision

[DATARI]

Hi, can anyone point me to a website with info on how to do the pause button mod on a Colecovision, or just tell me how to do so...

Thanks!

As stated in the thread linked below you need to put a switch between pin 50 (Wait) of the expansion slot and ground or between pin 24 of the CPU (Wait) and ground.

A problem is that the sound continues to play the paused tone. To resolve this you also need to disable the audio by breaking the audio trace on the mainboard somewhere and insert a switch in the break.

 

Both of the above jobs can be achieved with a single DPDT switch.

 

Yurkie provides this complete mod as a service and it works a charm and looks good to boot.
