Well the eBay deal for the LTRASTOR - 802-18009-02B U12F went south. I was sent a PCI video card which I finally got the shipping label to send it back and hopefully get refunded.
The seller could not find the correct card.
Well I bought a DCT-6180-15T and have questions.
Should drive be setup as drive select 1? Should the cable have no twist?
I can only find the doc's on DCT6180-15TX
The differences I'm looking at is W4 default is for a 32k SRAM where my board has a 8k SRAM so I'm closing pin 2 & 3 to select 8K
My board has no jumpers for W2 W3 so they are open by default.
I'm hoping the switch setting are correct
SW1-1 closed factory configured default
SW1-2 Primary port 1F0h-1F7h enabled open default
SW1-3 Auto-deselect disabled open default ---- what is this setting for?
SW1-4 BIOS EPROM enabled closed default
SW1-5 BIOS ADDRESS
SW1-6 BIOS ADDRESS
SW1-7 Interrupt after reset enabled closed default
SW1-8 Track buffer enabled closed default
Other issue I had to leave a ST-22 MFM floppy controller in the system to use the floppy drive. I set the AT bios to show no HD's installed. I changed the BIOS address on the DTC-1680-15T to D4000h
My 1st attempt W4 was set wrong and I'm not sure on the cabling before I try again I would love to make sure on the cabling and if the switches have the same meaning between the DTC-6180--15t and the DTC-6180-15TX
How should the led on the HD act before I run the debug program if it's setup correctly?
Any help greatly appreciated...
