The problems are resolved! Here is the lowdown on this project.... First, the magic word is 42000001, not 41000001 to enable powerup of the disk. The doc is backwards. The test does NOT give an error on completion, it says 'OK' when it completes. It sends 3 commands instead of the 2 as mentioned. Other than that it all works correctly. Phil Hunt PS. NOTE: DO NOT PUT THREE DRIVES IN A VAXSTATION THAT POWER UP THE SPINDLE on SYSTEM POWERUP! YOUR POWER SUPPLY MIGHT DIE! I have found doing 2 at a time works ok for me....
