DES-TEST MAX (SwiftlinK edition)

This edition of DesTestMAX (DesTestMAX-SL) uses the SwiftLink-232 (or compatible) cartridge to communicate diagnostics information rather than attempt to use the C64’s VIC and (possibly bad) memory.

Sending diagnostics using the SwiftLink requires no system RAM and leverages the fact that we can use the remote terminal to display (and possibly buffer) all fault information rather than attempt to store and display it locally.

DesTestMAX-SL has been successfully used with an original SwiftLink-232, the CMD SwiftLink re-release, the CMD Turbo232 and a home-brew clone.

For details about the non-SwiftLink edition of DesTestMax, see the page here.
