Zulu SCSI with Darksoft Super Bios Standard SH

I'm not sure what I did different, but I reflashed the firmware, disconnected everything, reformatted, etc. etc....

But it works now! So I con confirm the setup is super easy if you ignore whatever user error I went through, Thanks for helping, Derick!

Glad its working, it was probably just the FW needed to be flashed.

Would you say these are the settings that worked for you?!
I want to verify it so it can help others if they need it.

Here is the info on the led status on power on

Troubleshooting​

The LED indicator normally flashes to indicate disk activity.

Upon initial power-on, the activity LED also reports the following status conditions:

  • 1 fast blink on boot: Firmware successfully loaded, and at least one image file loaded successfully
  • 3 fast blinks: No images found on SD card, and then automatically falls back to raw passthrough mode.
  • 5 fast blinks: SD card not detected
  • Continuous morse pattern: firmware crashed, morse code indicates crash location
If a crash occurs, the firmware will also attempt to save information to a separate zuluerr.txt log file, on the root of the SD card.

No LED activity: verify the 'BOOT' configuration switch is OFF.

Chiming in to say thanks for the help! I just got my ZuluSCSI v1.2. After some trial and error here's what worked:

1) Created an ISO from the CD image, named "CD1.iso"
2) Formatted the SD card to FAT32 and copied "CD1.iso" to the SD card root
3) SW301 DIP 2&4 ON, DIPS 1&3 OFF
4) SW403 DIP 1 ON, DIPS 2&3 OFF (SCSI ID 1)
5) SW404 rotary switch set to 1 (CD)

In my case, I didn't need to update my firmware to get everything working.

Try these settings, rename the ISO file to CD1.iso and give it a go.
If it doesn't work, try switching dip #2 ON on the 4 dip switch on the left and try again.
make sure that the SD card was FAT32 or exFAT formated and that you copied the iso file over, not tried to BURN the image to the SD card.

I just wanted to chime in and say that I did the switched to dip # 2 and that did it for me. Really appreciate the info on this thread.
