Arburg 420C (2002) Injection Molding Machine - Gotek Emulator Problem

[dippaolo]

Hello,

I'm having trouble connecting a Gotek floppy drive emulator to my Arburg 420C injection molding machine from 2002, which uses a Selogica controller.

The diskette images are working correctly (I've tested them on a PC), but the machine is unable to read them. I suspect the issue is with the emulator's configuration.

I need help with the ff.cfg configuration file and the proper jumper settings for the emulator.

Has anyone here had a similar problem and would be willing to share their working ff.cfg file or offer advice on the correct settings for this specific machine model and year?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Don't mess with FF.CFG to start with, and if you have, reset any cached configuration within the Gotek by holding both buttons for a few seconds after power on, with no stick inserted, until the display changes.

For jumpers, try all variations of: S0, S0+JC, S1, S1+JC.

Thanks @keirf for the reply. The FF.CFG file hasn't been changed yet. All combinations were made on the S1, S2, JC, M0 jumpers. Here is my ff.cfg file:
