Any SD HxC Floppy emulator will do the job :

Any PC with an internal (not USB!) floppy is ok to make the dump.

About the floppy image i have only the israelian version. the deutsch version is incoming.

Today I found floppy v.4.20. Program was loaded and when I press "#" nothing happened. Keyboard isn't work.
Keyboard from PC works with Sun ?
Maybe keyboard controller is broken or software is wrong ?

hello guys!

so as promised, here are the files:

first the config-file

then the system file version 552

and the universal data file version 552

copy these 3 files to your SD-card, insert and choose system file while the machine counts memory.
then continue with the data file....and have fun

the files contain all universal testing programs and the former german emmission control test called "AU" (Abgas-Untersuchung)
software is in german language.

if you have working floppies and problems to read them, please do not hesitate to contact me.
i'm interested in all kind of mcs 2000 software.

regards
thomas

Hallo Tomsail

hoffe ich täusche mich nicht und du sprichts Deutsch!
Ich habe 2 Originale Disketten die noch In ordnung sind,
wenn ich es schaffe sie einzulesen könnte ich sie dir zukommen lassen.

Jetzt meine Frage handelt es sich bei der dritten Softwear um die Technikersoftwear bzw.
hast du so eine softwear?

Mein Tester müsste Kaliebriert werden damit er mir den co und den hc wert Anzeigt,
weißt du wie das Funktioniert kann ich das mit der Techniker umgehen oder braucht man nur
das Kaliebriegas anschließen?

Will nicht noch mehr experimentieren und mehr Geld investieren ohne Resultat!

Bin Dankbar für jede Antwort!!!

hallo!

gerne kannst du mir die disketten zukommen lassen. wasfürwelche sind das denn?

nein, die dritte software oben ist die zweite AU-diskette.

die techniker/wartungssoftware hab eich leider nicht.

für eine kalibrierung breichst du keine spezielle software, das geht in den systemeinstellungen.
kalibriergas brauchst du dafür aber definitiv!

hast du keine bedienungsanleitung?

könnte ich evtl. scannen.

grüße
thomas

I would buy Hxc emulator but I'm not sure if this will help.
Today I tried all my floppies and keyboard doesn't work.
Is the keyboard can be broken ?
Floppy disks may be damaged?

Hallo Thomas,

danke für die Info!

auf den Disketten die habe steht drauf:
Diskette 1
Tester: MCS-2000/AU
Programm: System D
Version: 5.43
Datum: 27.05.1994
PTB: V 5.43

Diskette 2
Tester: MCS/Tech-80AL
Programm: AU-II. Leg
Version: 5.40 Rev. 1
Datum: 06.01.1994

kann ich die Disketten mit so einem USB Diskettenlaufwerk einfach einlesen, oder wie geht das am besten?

Und wie kann ich sie dir zukommen lassen?

Gruß Hans Peter

Hello folks, i have also a mcs 2000 sl with several working floppy sets And drives but missing that one specific floppy, the service disk.
I am desperate in search for this "service disk", Can any one help me out? This disk is needed for settings like date, time, machine configration And so on. Without this software the machine is useless.
Thanks in advance, Luc

Hi i have a SUN MCS 2500 gas analizer and my HDD is dead. Do you know what can I do to get a new copy or an equivalent software for testing?
Thanks
