This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

File contents
The Acorn application note on interfacing to the 1MHz bus recommends that all output and data lines should be pulled up to +5V and down to ground on the LAST DEVICE connected to the 1MHz bus. If the Winchester disk unit is the last device (or the only device) then fit the eight 2K2 resistors and RP1 to RP4. If the Winchester is not the last device in the chain then a 1MHz bus in and 1MHz bus out socket should be provided to allow daisy chaining - this is most easily done by putting a 34 way IDC socket (one with pins) onto the cable at the back of the Winchester unit. Note that the Teletext Adaptor has the special status of last device in the 1MHz bus chain (it has the terminating resistors fitted). Fig. 2 to Fig. 4 are the art work for the double sided PCB to build the host adaptor, as follows: Fig. 2 - Component placing diagram. Fig. 3 - Bottom side - track layout Fig. 4 - Component side - track layout On Fig. 2 the crosses "+" indicate the 0.8mm holes used for the IDC connectors and through pins. Our PCBs are not through plated boards, instead through pins are used to connect the top layer to the bottom, a pin is used in every position that is not an IDC connector. You may have difficulty making PCBs from this artwork as photocopiers have a tendency to slightly change the size of the artwork and add distortion, as an alternative you could wire wrap a board, or even build the circuit on Veroboard...

ADFS expects the power up default drive parameters to be correct or the controller to get the parameters from the drive (eg. Adaptec/Xebec). The following table indicates the bytes that have to be altered and their addresses within the EPROM. NOTE: the addresses are for firmware version WD24 (DTC-510A controller) and WD30 (DTC-510B) if you have a different firmware version number the parameter block may be at a different address.

Rodime E series appear to have less heads but more cylinders. NOTE: 1. Max head address is number of heads - 1 2. Max cylinder address is number of tracks -1 (16 bit number) 3. Rodime drives are operated in fast seek mode, buffered with ramped stepper speed controlled by the on board processor on the drive (see Rodime manual). The format of the ten bytes is the same as detailed in the DTC manual for the "load drive parameters" opcode except that the 16 bit numbers are stored low byte first. For other drives you will have to calculate the parameters and blow an EPROM with the appropriate bytes. If you don't have the facility to edit/blow EPROMs then I can probably do it for you. Controller links (DTC-510A) Link W1 on the controller should be open to select 256 byte sectors then the default parameter (closed is 512 byte sectors), and link W2 should be across BC. Link W (by the crystal) should be on. Controller links (DTC-510B) Sect Select links W6 and W7 should both be open to select 256 byte sector operation. W1, W2, W3 & W5 should be open, parity select W8 should be open, and W4 should be connected between 1 & 2. Link ID0 should be connected (nearest to W7). Getting going Once a host adaptor has been built or purchased, and the controller card has been configured for the Winchester the system can be put together, formatted and tested. Power up the Winchester drive, controller, host adaptor and BBC micro at the same time, ADFS should be installed as the highest filing system ROM (preferably the highest priority ROM, socket 14 is okay is you have BASIC in 15) a high priority socket is needed as ADFS has to service interrupts from the host adaptor, and is reasonably timing dependant, a few ROMs can cause problems if they are in a higher priority socket (eg. IEEE filing system). If you have a Master you should do a *CONFIGURE FILE 8 to make ADFS the default filing system. *CONFIGURE HARD to select Winchester by default The system should be hanging after the "BBC Computer 32K", "Acorn ADFS" messages waiting for the Winchester to spin up to speed (takes up to 30 seconds) and become "ready". After this time ADFS will try to "mount" the drive, that is, read in the free space map and root directory. The DTC controllers have 8 status leds, they should be displaying 01000000, which is the idle condition, if they are 11111111 (all on) then you probably connected one of the cables the wrong way round or forgot the power on the host adaptor. If you get "Disk error 5 at :0/000000" then hit BREAK, the system should now hang and wait for the drive, this seems to happen with some RODIME drives on the DTC controller. Depending what is already on the disk (garbage as far as we are concerned on the first occasion), you will get a "Disk error", "Bad FS Map", "Compaction required" or "Broken directory" message and the system will then probably hang or drop into BASIC. Press Control F and BREAK, ADFS will be entered without looking for the free space map/root directory. Load the Winchester formatter program from floppy disk (remember that under ADFS your floppy drives are now :4 and :5), example LOAD ":4.SYSROOT.WINCHESTER.DTCFORM" Run the format program, it should take about 1 or 2 minutes to format the drive, depending on capacity. After the format is complete the drive should be exercised by the diagnostic routine, when finished successfully you can initialise the drive.
