Future Spy Pinouts
Note: this is adapted from David Holcomb's very thorough Zaxxon pinouts
file. See game_archive/boardPinots/Zaxxon.pin on wiretap.spies.com
for more info.
Future Spy belongs to the small Zaxxon family of boards (Zaxxon, Super
Zaxxon, and Future Spy) that all run off of the same hardware. Although
Super Zaxxon requires a small extra soundboard, Future Spy _appears_ to
be nothing more than a straight ROM swap away from an original Zaxxon
board.
There are only 2 small differences between

O-Taito is the Old Taito pinout on wiretap. N-Taito is the New-Taito pinout (Like Elevator Action). Quote by R. Schieve: "Taito.pin will match most for power, ground, monitor, and speaker connections but inputs are usually quite different." DECO/Data East is the Data East pinout.

FUTURE SPY DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
------------------------------
Howdy
Here are the DIP switch settings for Future Spy (grandson of Zaxxon),
as typed in by me (jasonbar@engineering.ucsb.edu). Note that, I hereby
declare that I can not be held accountable for your machine exploding
(or doing anything less drastic but still bad) if you set your switches
as described here. BTW, I was surprised to notice that these are totally
different from the Zaxxon.sw file here on wiretap...Also, note that the

Subj: A neat trick with mail
For all of you who use the MAIL program as a form of
the "paperless office", I have discovered a bug (pronounced
"fea-ture") in same.
It seems that the addressee line (TO: ...) is parsed
independently of file handling. Mail looks at each item in
the list, and checks for a double colon (

The original posting of this pinout had the parts side and solder side
reversed. This version of the pinout fixes that error and discusses how
to change to composite sync from positive to negative JAMMA compatible.
Thanks to Rick Schieve for pointing this out. The schematic that shows
the settings for this switch (SW4) is in the Zaxxon manual, drawing
