Pro-Log M980 Programmer

Hi, I own a Pro-Log M980 Prom Programmer and want to program a 2732 EProm. I have everything needed, but how can I get the data in? There is a serial interface, did anybody have some program for a standard PC to handle that daa transfer? Cabling istn't an issue, can do it. Thanks for helping.

Well I don't know as I have asked a company to do the work. They seem to think the PSU will work with the originals but perhaps that they are not performing very well? I suppose I should ask them to keep the originals. I did wonder about reforming them. Regards Rob > -Original Message

IBM XDF has multiple sizes of sectors on each track! Similarly, the Ensonic Mirage got 880K on a "720K" disk by using five 1024 byte sectors plus a 512 byte one. The WD 179x type FDC can mix sector sizes, since formatting with it is an almost RAW write of a track. It is, of course, "impossib
