+Lee Stewart Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I would like to be able to transfer files between two TI-99/4As, one with a nanoPEB and the other with a CorComp or TI RS232 card, using Fred’s HDX cable at the 38500 BAUD possible with his HDX-server/CfHdxS1, PC/TI procedure. Is there a program that will currently use the HDX protocol between two TIs? Or, will I have to write such a beast?!? ...lee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Oh yes, a new "LapLink" for the TI please (If you remember that old DOS-proggie) This here is my original cable from the early 80ies. There was/is also a yellow one for parallel. And I can Remember "KirschbaumLink" which was one of the early, for DOS, where you could map the MFM-drives each other. Sorry, I am getting sentimental and off-topic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Schmitzi Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 maybe u can use 2 PCs with HDX-server, each connected to a TI, and immediate synch the PCs 2 upload-folders with ie SynchBackFree via LAN, in the background ? or same scenario, with 2 Virtual-PCs, using 2 different COM-Ports on the 1 hostmachine ?

Yeah, I'll probably need to do something like that; but, it should be possible to do what I want to do. I may need to bite the bullet and write it. ...lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+arcadeshopper Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 well with a null modem added and magicfm on one side and telco on the other you coulld use two ti's.. would be slow though.. hdx is at 38400 baud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opry99er Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 This is something I have wanted to do for a while and I am hoping to learn the process and how you did it/how we can improve the process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
