Disk drive upgrade to Nalbantov N-Drive 1000-FE5

Disk drive upgrade to USB drive

Almost everyone uses a model from GOTEK to this, which is cheap.
This was impossible to obtain, so I got the best for the purpose - Nalbantov N-Drive 1000-FE5.
It costs much more, but can be installed without moving cables.


Nalbantov N-Drive 1000-FE5
This is intended for the SX-KN6500 and has not been tested for the SX-KN6000,
but the two models are equivalent and the device should work.
I don't know if anyone has made this to work, but I took the chance.

By following the instructions in the enclosed manual, it was very easy to mount it.
However, it turned out that the actual installation of the software did not work, because nothing happened when I had done everything - the display showed L.d.r - and should have shown 999.

After trying to reverse the data cable and trying alternative jumper settings, the result remained negative.
I then tried a trick; namely to start the keyboard as normal and then start a rhythm.
This enabled the device and its display showed 000, which it should do after the installation.
In addition, a menu appeared on the keyboard screen to edit data on the device.

I received a mail today from the developer and manufacturer of this floppy emulator.
He says no one else has been able to install the device on a KN6000 - and make it work.
He calls for more details about what I've done, because this will help many other musicians.


Kind regards
