Copy Digital Cassettes? - toml_12953 - 04-09-2024 02:35 PM
Is there any way to copy one digital cassette (HP 82161A) to a second drive with one command using an HP-71 or HP-75?
The COPY command doesn't accept wildcards so I can't just do this:
Code:
COPY "*:C1" TO ":C2" or
COPY ":C1" TO ":C2"RE: Copy Digital Cassettes? - Sylvain Cote - 04-09-2024 03:58 PM
On the HP-75 you have the 00075-13015 Duplication & Privacy Solutions Book that allow you to clone cassettes.
The solutions book comes with two magnetic cards "MCOPY" and "INSTALL" that you have to load into the HP-75.
Those cards are inside the 00075-13015 Duplication & Privacy [soft tape] (sc).dat LIF volume.
On the HP-71 there is a MCOPYLEX file that should do the same as the HP-75 one.
The LEX is inside the lexfl1.dat LIF volume in Joe Horn Swap Files.

The third option would be to write a small BASIC program that read the cassette catalog into memory then copy the files one by one.
