More details please. What is the problem exactly ?

[radamm]

hi jeff

I am not getting to set up the files inside of the SD card.
because the msx shows disk mistake.
I believe that the mistake this converssao of the files for the format .hfe

is there some tutorial?

Thank you for the help.

1) - The sdcard must be formated in FAT32
2) - The emulator read only hfe file format. You must convert your floppy image file with this software : https://hxc2001.com/floppy_drive_emulat ... r_soft.zip

To convert an floppy image :
1] Button Load -> select your file (*.dsk/*.img/*.st...)
2] Button Export-> HFE file type
3] Copy the Hfe file to the sdcard.

To convert a whole directory :
1] Button Convert
2] Select the source directory
3] Select the destination directory (the sdcard for example)
4] Button "Batch converting"


What is the error message exactly ?

[radamm]

thank you for the information on the convert of the files.
there is no mistake in the emulator or in the convert, I already tested all track and integrated circuits.

I carry the image in the emulator. ok
in the msx I give the command.
I wander of disk.
I eject the file
disk no ready.

I am not more sure have doubts on the convert of the files.
could you order a converted file so that I can make test?


Thank you, thank you very much even for the help.

Did you select the hfe file in the sdcard emulator ?
What is the behavior of Leds ?
What do you see on the LCD ?

[radamm]

Did you select the hfe file in the sdcard emulator ?

yes file ok teste.hfe

What is the behavior of Leds ?

led d2 on
led d3 on
led d4 on

What do you see on the LCD ?
name of the file
track 2
in the display

[Jeff]

Did you select the hfe file in the sdcard emulator ?

yes file ok teste.hfe

What is the behavior of Leds ?

led d2 on
led d3 on
led d4 on

What do you see on the LCD ?
name of the file
track 2
in the display

And if you try the Floppy emulator with the msx (floppy cable disconnected) what is its behavior ? (What is the behavior of Leds ? )

[radamm]

led 4 doesn't light.

[Jeff]

led 4 doesn't light.

ok , if led 4 is always on when the emulator is plugged to the msx, there are probably a problem around the floppy connector/pinout of the msx.
Are you sure that you have plugged the floppy connector in the right way?
Which msx are you using ? (brand/model)

[radamm]

msx 1 basic 1.1
gradiente



tank's for help.

this should works with this computer.
-where did you plug the emulator (internal / external connector ?)
-can you try the emulator with the floppy cable inverted ?

[radamm]

hi jeff.

the floopy disk and the same of the computer.
in the computer the disk 1 and ds1 and in the msx and ds0.
the pins of the connector of 34 pins are the same.

PS.floopy disk works in the pc with 1,44 the same flopy disk works in 720k with the window of the disk closed.
