Req: File CYC-V13.LHA on old Paradise Dream BBS

[Gringo]

I have found a old list of Diz file, from a Paradise Dream BBS
and inside there is a file called CYC-V13.LHA this file is a
new Cyclone V13 hardware Auto Switch.

The Auto Switch, is a protection cechk insite the Cyclone Software
after the V12 release of Cyclone Software all new release control
if the Hardware Dongle Cyclone make the Auto Switch ON/OFF and
use it to Verify if the dongle is Selfmade of an Original One.
Cyclone V13 and Cyclone TNG V14 don't work if the Dongle is
self made, but need the Dongle Auto Swithc ON/OFF by Software.

The last Cyclone Hardware V13 & V14 can Werify in Nibble Mode
by Auto Switch after it write a Track.

For a fully corect function it need a New Hardware Schematic.

PS: Sorry for my Poor English

I Hope, but no one have the file, i don't know Why, a possible Fake ?
My BBS archive is from 1999 to 2004 the Cyc file is in a 1997 Archive,
the cartridge work on Sigfried Copy Too.

[hit]

just rare, i supose. the topic is set, so maybe someone will come up with it
or there is someone with such a device, willing to investigate the pcb, creating some layout and read-out the gal?

[Gringo]

The GAL have a Set Bit Protection, if is Set is Impossible to Read out the Source Code
the only Way is, someone have the code or reversing engenearing of the Cartridge.

[hit]

*Sigh* if they managed to reverse the aa chipsset (natami) then this is just something for the average electronical hobbyist. *hopefully*

I have found a Reseller, whith some Cyclone in Stock, i whaiting the
responce, if is Autoswitch version or only the plug version.

Is X-Copy & Tools 1993, i don't Know if is the New or Old Hardware
if is i bought One and i Try a way to Drain the GAL code, if is possible.

PS: I know my English is Terrible

[hit]

not sure, when they changed the hardware. there are to many versions (pro, asi, tng).
maybe someone else can say, what software version came with the new dongle?

ps: just try google language tools. i do this sometimes too, gives good results

[Gringo]

The New cyclone is implemented from this revision of Cyclone Software
V12.01 it use a new APWM Mode, The Verify.

The X-Copy in bundle is the 1993, the pink one, like the box of the
reseller version, i have found, i hope in a fast response from the guy.

The postage is 5.9€ and the price is...Trattable, but is not write....
i hate this....

[hit]

Trattable = tradeable? if so, i hope he made a fair price at all.

Another way to do this autoswitch cartridge :
See this link : Cyclone AutoSwitch

BTW I have a Cyclone adapter somewhere and I'm willing to sell it. Anyone is interested? How much would it be worth?
