Re: Please Help Comms Problems Between Mac se And Eii

2008-06-06 by Mike de Vries

My Emu does not communicate with my mac�the first time after i've pressed any buttons on the panel of the Emu.. 
�
I get the error "Can't communicate with EII"
�
But if i try again, it will work immediately.
�
This confused me alot at first, as I thought something was wrong, and so i'd try something different, but all I needed to do was to try the dump again.
�
Regards
�
Mike

You can also try to switch between Appletalk ON and OFF.
This was the solution for both Macs I used with my EIIs. 
With one of my Macs I had to switch it ON, with another Mac I had to 
switch it OFF... Don't ask me why :-)
