Device not present error

[rrd...@icloud.com]

Hi, new owner of the uiec/sd today.

The device powers up properly. I see a red power light and 2 flashes of the green light. When I try to access it, (load"$",10) I get a device not present error. I tried 8 and 9 as well. I checked the serial cable with another drive, and it's ok. I tried on board power through the cassette slot and external power. I tried the SD card reader in both the vertical and horizontal positions. I don't have Jiffy DOS.

Not sure what I'm missing. Any advice would be appreciated.

thanks,

Rob

Do you have a serial cable hooked to the 64 and the uIEC?

Yes, And I have confirmed the cable is good with a 1541.

Hmm, it sounds like a bad unit. I'll send another one out.

It's also possible the OP has the cable plugged into the IEC *output*
port of the uIEC.

I have tried both serial ports, with no difference.

AFAIK there is no "output" port there, just like there is no "output" one on the 1541.

Well, perhaps my wording was wrong -- both ports have bidirectional I/O.
I meant that one port (the one I called "output") is connected to the
next device in the daisy chain, while the other one is connect to the
previous one or the computer.
