Lattice C, SMD-SCSI
4 messages in this thread
Larry, Lattice said there were 2 "versions" of 5.04 sent out and that when
the wrong one was used to upgrade to 5.05, the read() function you
mentioned went bad. They said you should contact them to get it fixed.
Also, $100 to upgrade my very old "AMIGA C" to 5.05. VISA in mail :). Also
waiting on FUJITSU to see if I can get a MOD done on their M1053 SCSI to
SMD controller. Maybe can get ram as separate LUN to download configs for
other drives thru SCSI or easy firmware changes to free it up. Right now
only supports FUJI models M2333KS, M2344KS, M2372KS with HSMD.

Harry,
I <blush> found the problem with Read(), with the help of Don Curtis.
Seems my Open() had misplaced parens (it was part of an 'if' statement).
I just spent a week in the SOuth Bay area, and noticed that Weird Stuff
Warehouse had an Adaptec 5580 SCSI->SMD controller for $149. Looking at
their ad in Computer Shopper, it is listed at $175. Don't know if it will
do the tricj for the drives you want it to work on, but it's probably worth
findng out. Oh.. and they are called 'Computer Surplus Store' in the
CompShopper ad. I've dealt with them before in person, though not mail
order. Strange place to visit. 🙂

Larry The OMTI 5000 series has traditionally been an OMTI commmand set typ
e controller. I'm not familiar with the 5580 however. Thanks for the info.
