Nothing. Just load one raw file, the others are loaded as well.
Note : All raw files must be in the same folder.

Hello. I read the thread very carefully. I am using HXC Rev C cased. Followed all of the procedures mentioned above for creating image of my Arburg floppy disk. The problem is that the machine start reading it but in the end failed and then restarted.

Hello. The tested controller using only one floppy disk not three. Also every control has custom starting disks. I tested your images but without luck.

biernak appears to be correct, the KryoFlux board isn't available for sale on the KryoFlux store any longer: https://webstore.kryoflux.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=1

Hello Jeff and everyone else.

I have read this thread in great detail - downloaded all the required files and am planning to perform this upgrade on my Arburg multronica machine.

I have a few questions on the procedure, and may need some additional advice.

In order to perform this upgrade I need to do the following steps:
1) purchase HxC Floppy Emulator (REV F)
2) purchase Kryoflux -- https://webstore.kryoflux.com/catalog/p ... ucts_id=30
3) purchase Panasonic JU-257A607P floppy disc drive
4) use Kryoflux and Panasonic floppy disc drive to create RAW files from my existing Arburg Program and System Disks (2 disks)
5) use HxC software to convert the RAW files to HFE ??
6) write HFE files to SD card
7) install HxC Floppy Emulator (REV F) into Multronica control unit
8) connect SD card w/ HFE and read

Is this correct? I am awaiting confirmation - or adjustments to my process and I will begin purchasing all the components. If needed, I can send the disks to Jeff, to have them read - whatever is the preferred method.

Thanks in advance, and I appreciate your time,
Jason

The process is good. If you need any help for the step 5 you can contact me for the conversion.
