Help with floppy cable wire layout

Postby atomicmidi » Thu Feb 10, 2011 8:40 pm

Hi guys,

I bought a SCSI to CF kit from Ian in scsiforsamplers.com, as you may know he closed the shop recently. I have managed to get another kit and I am about to install it BUT I no longer have the info Ian sent me about the wire layout on the floppy power cable! I am now stuck because I don't want to fry my SCSI bridge.. does anybody have any info on what is the correct wire layout for floppy power cable? I remember that the green wire had to be swapped but since I am not sure I won't go trying things here.. any help much appreciated! :???:

Also what made EMU sap cables on power connectors? Puzzling.

Cheers Russ - I already managed to track it down and now I am testing my Yamaha SCSI to IDE card!

For others out there -
It seems it works with hardrives only - CF cards show up but I cannot save on them.. :cry:
