Title: CD32 talking to A1200
Post by: punkyclown on February 06, 2016, 06:06:54 PM

Hi All, got my CD32 running with a power supply from the UK.  When I got my first one back
in 1993 in Switzerland I used it as a CD ROM drive for my A1200.  But I can't remember how
I did it.  I know I used software from the Network CD but not much more.  Can anyone out there help me?
Thanks, Brad Hansen

You need a cable which connects the CD32 aux / keyboard port to the serial port of the 1200. You then run the software off cd and there was also a floppy disk.

The cable can be made up easily and if you should also be able to find the .adf of the floppy.

Sorry to be vague, if I was using a proper computer right now (on a Kindle), I'd be able to do some searches for links more easily.
