Keywords: pot fast scan Message-ID: <6243@c3pe.UUCP> Date: 1 Jan 89 22:23:41 GMT Organization: C3 Inc, Herndon, VA Lines: 14 I am attempting to write a simple oscilloscope program for my Atari 800XL, and have run into what appears to be a snag. Although I can appreciate that the accuracy of the reading may be reduced by a few significant bits, it appears instead that, depending on the pot value, *most* of the readings I get are completely bogus. I *think* I am doing all of the necessary steps in the correct order, as specified in Atari's Technical Reference Manual for the 800. Has this interface changed somehow for the XL series? I will, of course, summarize any mailed responses. Thanks!
