Thanks for all the replies, I get searching now :)

I have a feeling that OmniDisk/Flop can read/write the DOSPlus format, so
once I track down some images, I'll give that a go.

Thanks Again!

Chris

You will need to make sure the co-processor is correctly connected to the
Master motherboard and then

*CONFIGURE TUBE

will get it going but beware of doing this without the DOS Plus Boot discs
as
it will then expect you to insert disc 1 and it can be a bit of a nuisance
to
get back to normality.  I think pressing CTRL-BREAK immediately followed by
F-BREAK will get you back to a * prompt so you can do *CONFIGURE NOTUBE
to turn the tube off again.

I think the DOS Plus discs are available somewhere on the Tinternet but I
am not sure how easy it is to get them onto physical media as the first one
is an unusual ADFS/DOS format.  If nobody comes up with anything within
a reasonable period of time, let me know your address and I will post you a
set.

Best wishes,


Ian

Hi All,

 

Having just acquired a Master 512, I'm eager to get it to work properly :-)

 

I have a couple of questions if I may:

 

1)       How do you activate the Co-Pro?

2)       Does anyone have a copy of the DOS-Plus disks or know where I can
obtain a set?

 

Best Regards and Many thanks!

Chris
