- I believe the first line shoudl be different (:-)) and should be
-
- { DATTAPE, TPDAT, 7, 6, "ARCHIVE", "Python", 0, 0, {0, 0, 0, 0},
-
- I believe the MTCAN_AUDIO reference should be deleted.
-
- ... as to the DIP switch settings, I'm currently using;
-
- Switch 3 4 5 6 7 8
- Set 0 0 0 1 1 0
-
- and have no problems (on a 4D/440 VGX).
-
-
- All the best
