Install Micronik video enabler in A1200

Does anyone have the install instructions for the Micronik A1200 Z2 bus board video enabler? I dont know what to do with the 60pin female connector on the end.

And where and how to orient the LSI chip sockets as pin pin is not a corner dot.

Thanks!

Maybe it's for the optional video slot adapter?

Yes its for the video slot enabler. I need the install instructions.

Those links only show the hardware not how to install

Does the video slot enabler work on all version motherboards? I have a 2B and cant find U8 or where this 60 pin female gets connected

Thanks

good luck finding the documentation. Try looking for those that have the hardware in other Amiga forums as well.

OK I figured it out

The only issue is on U7 it hits the keyboard connector and wont go all the way on, is this normal?

i think this is one of the cia chips? there is another one, i think the one under the floppy. from the pictures, it would fit better on the chip under floppy.

_BUT_ please check. the shots from mother boards are not very crisp
A1200 motherboards

edit: i think i'm right, it's U8, instead of using U7.

so you had to use both cia-chips. with correct orientation the pcb for u7 fits good it seems.
