Agilent 54622a Retrofit a floppy emulator drive
« on: September 09, 2019, 05:40:47 am »
i am trying to retrofit a floppy drive emulator to my 54622 and just getting disk drive error.

Has anyone tried to fit one of these with success?

Mostly confused with these jumpers. S1, MO, JE and JE. Not sure what to choose here. Cannot find a manual or datasheet.

S1 may set the address of the drive. Move it to S0 or disconnect if there is no S0 position and see what happens.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

I now understand a but better those two buttons. Seems they change between "floppy disks". The hard thing on my one is that is does not have a display so I am not sure in what disk I am after a press them once.

Also...

The files I saved on my Mac I can manage to see on the 54622.



Bit the files I saved with the 54622 I can see them stored on my 54622, but cannot see them on my Mac.



I also tried to load the firmware HxCFEUSB_V3_4_6_4a.UPD but not sure if it worked.
