HxC SD Floppy Emulator

Post by yerkopil8 »

Hi,

Looking into buying one of these HxC SD Rev-C drive emu's with the LCD Screen and mounting it internally. However, it occurs to me that I won't have access to the buttons to change to the next disk slot.

How would I go about swapping the slots without access to these buttons?

Presumably with the new A1200 cases people do mount these internally so I'm assuming there is a way to change disk slots without having to breakout the soldering iron and adding my own external buttons?

Thanks

The Rev C have a connector on the pcb to connect the LCD and the buttons.
But you need to add/solder this connector since Lotharek doesn't mount it. (J2 / Front Panel connector)

EDIT : I see this PCB marking: "REV C 100910" -> This board design is ten years and 10 days old ! :D :shock: :D
