The best way is to get a conductive paint pen or kit…. using a pencil is really a stopgap measure….not anywhere near as reliable as renewing the surface

Hopefully you have the .em1 banks saved before they were wrapped with the emax os files as .hfe with HxC software. If not you can use the image2emax software
2015-12-15 by Ted Summers
I don’t know how to be more clear. You made HxC images (HFE files I think?). Each one you did with emaxos.emx which is 3.2 version of software. (except for 1

No- I posted a link a few days ago to the upload of the HD Factory bank collection on zippyshare. The five factory images in EMXP compatible format are zipped

Do we have those factory banks in the files area? Thank you!!

With regards to 1- I can’t answer- I don’t have HxC as I have mentioned many times now. With regards to 2 and 3- Please read the SE update PDF. It mentions

No I don’t have a process for updating banks with HxC because I don’t have HxC. I have (and sell / install) the SCSI chip upgrade for Emax. But I have a

People are posting about the same issue I m having-- getting HxC HFE files that are formatted for EMAX SE. When one does the file conversion, the files must be

That sounds correct. So, when you boot from this SD card- you should then see in the menu SE 1.1. Is that what you see? If so- it is correct, and no need to do

Let´s start again.. 1º I have formatted my SD card to FAT 32 and the sd card is empty.. 2º Inside of this card I have introduced only SE upgrade and EMAX
2015-12-12 by Ted Summers
Please note that once BOOTED, the OS is expected to stay the same. So if you boot with 3.2 on Hxc, then it will stay 3.2 until you turn Emax off, even if you

Oscar- I think you are still doing it wrong. Simply put- SE 1.1 doesn’t say 3.2 when you go in the menu and check the version. If it still says 3.2- you

My Emax has an HxC SD and a slim floppy with a switch. I also added an HD and external SCSI DB-25 port. With the SE update it is now running Emax Plus OS 1.1

You have taken the BANK from the SE update image and placed it onto a 3.2 OS, which would mean you still wouldn’t access the SE features. You have to make an

You are using the PCMCIA card slot via adapter right? That is the ONLY slot that works on 50b or 60b in Emax - those are designated LUN 0, all other slots are

IF you load an SE OS- does it say wrong software / fail to boot? Your Emax may already be SE, in which case, an SE OS would already boot and your activity is

the se update will only work once then revert to a empty bank after. basically it formats itself after, so either a your update image is faulty or b) you have
