Hi Steve and anyone else reading this.

I have both INdusGT (which I use a lot) and XF551 drives.

I see there have been other threads - other issues.

My current issue is the INDUSGT and trying to write ATRs back to it.. I get operation timed out all the time.

My RANA works 1050 megaSpeedy works.. but I would really like to use my INDUS drives.

I see some patches were done.. have those been all incorporated in a current version??

Hi James,

I already gave this reply, somewhere else, so I repeat here.

I use my 1050 (stock) to write ATR's.
Using SIO2PC-USB/SIO-socket.

But somehow I must have my 800xl switched on.
The Atari does nothing, just being idle, I guess the 5 volt ready line on SIO must be up.
If I leave my Atari off, it's a hit or miss, mostly a miss.
So after figuring this out, I leave my Atari switched on, no problems.

I hope this helps with an IndusGT too. Can't test, have no Indus...

Grtz,
Sijmen.

No sorry that does not.

My setup is a Atari 800 ingconito / with INdusGT. Rana1000, TrakATD2. the Atari is on the whole time.

Of those three the only one I can write ATRs to is the Rana1000 - it is the least advanced of the 3 so my guess is there are not functions interfearing.

I have 6 1050s and one of those 6 is a megaSpeedy drive.. it can be switched to quickly with sio - that one works every time and quite fast..

So its not that cannot write an ATR .. i cannot write and ATR with 2 of 3 primary drives. Ill live if there is no solution.. just wondering if any updates have happened that I was not aware of.

OK, since I don't own the drives you have problems with, I can not test.
I have a lot of drives with and without modifications, but no Indus or Trak.

I assume you tried changing the setting in ProSystem.
That was for me also a puzzle to get things just right.

Take care,
Sijmen.
