Coverage: partial - machine identity only. Nothing about playfield devices, wiring, mechanisms, or behavior is evidenced yet.
This record was promoted from the generated catalog stub stub.pinmame.sam1_flashb_0310 by the
catalog-wide identity pass of 2026-08-29. The promotion resolves machine identity and carries the
catalog's residual driver grouping over unchanged, and it deliberately asserts nothing else. Every
requirement in the definition's coverage.missing is genuinely outstanding.
Identity
- PinMAME catalog: root driver
sam1_flashb_0310, description "S.A.M. Boot Flash Update (V3.1)", manufacturer "Stern", catalog year "2008". - No OPDB record is mapped for this driver in
machines/opdb_id.csv, so the name above comes from the PinMAME catalog alone and is unverified. - The definition's driver list is exactly the clone tree PinMAME declares under
sam1_flashb_0310; whether every listed driver really runs on this physical machine is unverified.
Drivers this record holds
sam1_flashb_0102(2006, Stern, clone ofsam1_flashb_0310).sam1_flashb_0106(2006, Stern, clone ofsam1_flashb_0310).sam1_flashb_0210(2007, Stern, clone ofsam1_flashb_0310).sam1_flashb_0230(2007, Stern, clone ofsam1_flashb_0310).sam1_flashb_0310(2008, Stern).
PinMAME source contract (candidate)
- The pinned PinMAME source declares
sam1_flashb_0310atsrc/wpc/sam.c:2439with machine modulesam1; no platform is declared (the record is classified diagnostic or system software, outside the physical-machine attachment scope).
What a curator must establish next
Full input, output, and display enumeration with semantic names; physical wiring and polarity; mechanism inventory and behavior; variant differences across the clone tree; recreation knowledge from a manual, schematic, or known-working table; runtime provenance; and a normalized spatial placement for every physical device. No manual, schematic, or runtime-harness evidence is retained for this machine yet; the candidate sections above are the only retained I/O evidence so far.
