I have a Gesswein MFM emulator from decromancer.ca; who offer an adaptor that yields a 2nd
MFM data connector.
I'll use mine in a Microvax 2000. Does anyone know how to hook it up as two MFM
drives in a Microvax 2000?
The vendor sold a 1in high adaptor box, BA40A, with DD50 connectors to a second cabinet
(same as CPU box) for a second drive.
DEC configured both primary and secondary drives identically (drive 3, IIRC). The
Microvax 2000 Technical Manual gives the pinout from the mother board to the MFM/floppy
daughterboard, but I can't find the pinout from that daughterboard to the cables
anywhere.
I've been looking for a BA40A, for some years now, to trace the pin layout for a 2nd
drive. Does anyone know it?
Has anyone successfully configured a single MFM emulator as two MFM drives in a Microvax
2000? Or to an RQDX3?
