Subject: Northstar Horizon Info

RE: QUESTIONS on the NORTHSTAR HORIZON
The error T 5 D 1 S 0000 Means error Type 5 (Density Mismatch) on Drive 1 at
Sector 0000. Northstar assigns sectors from 0 to 1390 decimal or 056EH without
referring to track/sector. An error Type 4 is no index pulse meaning wrong type
diskette (soft sector instead of 10 sector hard). T 6 is wrote protect and type
2 is CRC error. I have manuals on the Floppy based Horizon but nothing
on the 20
megabyte hard disk. These manuals are very rare now that Northstar doesn't make
Z80 systems if it in fact still exists.
