Re: [xl7] Incompatible Planet Earth rom with XL-7 2.0

Hi there,


Just got a Planet Earth module in (yay!), but my Command Station XL-7 os 2.0 won't accept it. 


Tried to use it with the rom alone, and with other rooms too (from the CH5 upwards). With the Planet Earth rom sole installed it just gives me the user patterns. With the XL-7 and MoPhatt rom there are no issues.  


My guess is that this rom is too old and the clock speed is too slow compared to the original Xl-7 rom and MoPhatt rom, so the motherboard of the XL-7 can't deal with it. Can this be? The PE rom module is 'thicker' than the other two. 


Is there a way to get the XL-7 to accept the Planet Earth rom? Since it is a rom I reckon it won't help updating the Planet Earth rack and then try again (this currently has 1.21 installed). 


I guess I'm too daft to find a post on this in this group, sorry about that and any wisdom on this is greatly appreciated!


Prodatum (which is absolutely fabulous) works well with the PE module, so I could live with it, but it would be very sexy to actually have this rom working in the XL-7.
