Based on your description, it seems you have a setup issue. A few suggestions from the ADTPro website:</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent;">
1) Check the serial cable. There are two types of cables: straight-through or of the null modem. You need to setup your serial card jumper block accordingly</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent;">
2) Check the position of the terminal block jumper on the card: for straight-through cable, the terminal block should point down. For null-modem cable, the terminal block should point Up</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent;">
2) Check the position of the card switch SW1 and SW2. They should be setup as SW1: 1001111 SW2: 1101100. Where
<tt>0</tt> means <tt>off,</tt> <tt>down,</tt> or <tt>open,</tt> and <tt>1</tt> means
<tt>on,</tt> <tt>up,</tt> or <tt>closed.</tt></div>

<div><font size="2" face="Arial">I've written Jayson off list, and he suggested I write to the list. I have followed the instructions according to the manual using a super serial card set as manual says. When trying to send any program to the apple, I get
a ton of beeps and nothing is saved. I ran a terminal program on the windows box and am able to send say a catalog command to the apple, but I get garbage back. Kind of reminds me of when we had characters with 8th bit on. I've fought this thing all week
end. I've tried 3 different windows boxes. I only have the one super serial card, so have ordered another one on ebay. I also dug out my 2 c with a cricket synthesizer, and can't get the computers to talk to each other no matter what I do. The cricket
has to be in com 2 so I'm using com 1. Trying to set baud and such with either ctrl a or ctrl i commands and running through all baud settings in teraterm, I can't get machines to communicate at all. Tried a null movem with no luck either. I can't figure
what I'm missing. I'm using the files Jayson sent. </font></div>

<div class="x_moz-cite-prefix">Hi,</div>
<div class="x_moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="x_moz-cite-prefix">Putting this on the list in case anyone else wants to give ADT a go.</div>
<div class="x_moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="x_moz-cite-prefix">Okay, here is ADT. <br>
<a class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://bluegrasspals.com/adt.zip">http://bluegrasspals.com/adt.zip</a><br>
When you unzip it, you'll find several files, as follows: <br>
<br>
adt.asm: Assembly source code for Apple II ADT program <br>
adt.dmp: ADT Apple program, hex dump to be sent to the Apple <br>
adt.exe: ADT Windows program, what you run on the PC <br>
adt123.dsk: ADT Apple disk image <br>
Adtcfg.bas: Dump of an Applesoft program to configure ADT, send this to the Apple
<br>
adtn.dmp: Same as adt.dmp but without line feeds for terminal programs that can't strip them
<br>
adtn_dmp_info.txt: Info about dump files <br>
ADT_doc.txt: ADT documentation <br>
GPL.TXT: Gnu General Public License <br>
Manual.txt: Complete ADT manual <br>
readme.txt: Brief Readme for ADT <br>
<br>
To get started, boot up a DOS 3.3 disk, disable Textalker with Ctrl-E, O if necessary, then have a disk in slot 6, drive 1, with plenty of free space. Then, follow the instructions in manual.txt to establish communication between your Apple and PC and send
either adt.dmp, or if your comm program can't strip line feeds, adtn.dmp. At the end of the process it should save a binary file called ADT and leave you at an Applesoft prompt.
<br>
<br>
Then, use the same procedure to send adtcfg.bas to your Apple, and it should save as an Applesoft program called ADT CONFIGURATION.
<br>
<br>
The default configuration on the Apple side is that disks read or written are in slot 6, drive 1. The Super Serial card is in slot 2, and the speed is 19200 BAUD. If that's not what you want, run adt configuration to change it.
<br>
<br>
Now run the PC program adt.exe. Choose the serial port and speed, and hit Connect. Once that's done, BRUNADT to start ADT on the Apple side. The program will not talk, but is very easy to use. I think at this point the status line on the PC should say it's
connected. <br>
<br>
Now to send a disk, put that disk in the drive and hit S, then type a filename, ending with .dsk is recommended, and hit Enter. The Apple should start reading the disk, and sending it. The disk image will be stored wherever adt.exe is, or in your current working
directory. <br>
<br>
When any operation completes, you'll hear a two-tone beep. If you hear this beep unexpectedly, it means there was some sort of error. If you send a disk, and the drive spins for a few seconds then nothing happens, and you don't hear the beep, there's probably
a communication problem. I think the program will prevent you from overwriting an existing file on the PC.
<br>
<br>
To receive a disk, first be very, very sure the disk in the drive doesn't contain anything valuable. It also must have been initialized. ADT gives you absolutely no warnings about erasing data, it assumes you know what you are doing. Type R, enter a filename,
and hit Enter. The disk will spin for a bit, then the PC will start sending the disk image in chunks, and the Apple will write it to the disk. Absolutely everything that was on the disk will be totally destroyed and overwritten with the new material.
<br>
<br>
If the drive just spins for a bit, then you hear a beep, that probably means that file doesn't exist in the directory on the PC.
<br>
<br>
Remember that all disk transfer commands are from the Apple perspective. When you send, you are sending an image from the Apple to the PC. When you receive, you are receiving an image from the PC to the Apple.<br>
<br>
To exit the program, just hit Q. <br>
<br>
A few notes. This program uses data compression, so especially if a disk has a lot of empty space, it'll transfer more quickly. Also, all transfers are done in seven-track chunks, which means when sending, the Apple will read seven tracks, send them, read seven
more tracks, send them, etc. When receiving, the reverse will happen. <br>
<br>
I recommend keeping the ADT binary file and ADT CONFIGURATION Applesoft program in a safe place. If you lose it or accidentally overwrite it with something else, you'll have to do the whole bootstrapping process all over again.<br>
<br>
If you have any questions, please let me know! <br>
Hope this helps, <br>
<br>
Jayson <br>

<div class="x_moz-cite-prefix">You can transfer 5.25 inch disks formatted for either DOS 3.3 and ProDOS, and which are not copy protected, using a program called Apple Disk Transfer. The version I have requires a Super Serial card in your Apple, and a Windows
PC for the receiving side. I got Jeff Weiss, who is on this list, set up with ADT a few years ago so he could transfer all his Apple Talk magazine disks, which he did successfully. If you want more info, just let me know.</div>

<div>I got some stuff downloaded that I run at the command prompt in windows. As far as what I have on actual disks, it has been a long long time. I did find kidnapped, which I use to play. Haven't found stoneville manor yet. I don't have a clue how to
turn those disks into images. I also have lots of eamon disks, beagle brothers stuff and things like that.
