Dear Technicians
i have got the AGFA ADC SOLO 5155/100
my problem started when the machine had an ejecting problem so i turned it off removed the cassette as always and turned it back on
my problem now the machine shows nothing on the display except a flashing (blinking) small black box on the upper left side even if i leave it for 4hrs its the same
i noted also that some times when i turn it on it keeps swathing on off on the display every 40sec
can any one help me please ??
thankyou
What error code before this problem???
now your operating system is broken, or maybe your hard disk defective,
contact to me rodrigo.cortes@corper.com.mx
thank you for your help i don't know the error code since i was not their when it happened
i found the service disks i just dont know how to restore them
The solo has most likely lost the operating software and it will have to be reloaded. The floppy disks should be with the unit on the cpi rack. This can be done either by watching the light on the floppy drive or by using a service pc using hyper terminal. You can just try the software without formatting the hard drive but sometimes the hard drive has to be formatted.
thank you for your replay i found the service disks and i have a PC with rs232 for the hyper terminal . i just don't know the procedure how to restore the disks
i tried inserting the format then reset then disk 1 then disk 2 nothing happened but i can see the the floppy drive is reacting with them i don't know when to change
you have an HDD drive problem; repair it by using HDD Regenerator by Dymitry Primochenko, using a scsi interface in a simple PC. Do not try to reload yet, is a large job for a not expert
i got 2 HDD from old ibm i tried them and they also gave me the same problem in the hyperterminal disk full check the hyperterminal log in my other replay thankyou
They have to be atleast 10 gig hard drives. I assume you are still using scsi drives and have not upgraded to the new rack with IDE drive. You can get scsi HDD from amazon. I just ordered one and it was about $100. Just make sure it is not a hot swappable drive as the connectors are different.
i went one by one
this the format from hyper terminal:
Cold start
RAM Data bus
RAM Alignment
RAM $0..$2000
RAM end= .....01FFFFFF
Starting monitor ....

Sorry I have never had this problem. I have reloaded software numerous times and have also replace a couple of hard drives. I can only thinnk of the hard drive being bad at this time.
Your hard disk has bad sectors. I recommend you replace your hard disk. I have some one as spare parts. If you have internet access on your lap or some machine near to the digitizer I can get access trough of your machine to digitizer and chek your HD. Sectors.

I see you used the hd format disk. did you then go directly to the software disks or did you use the portex disk#2 after the format disk?
