it tried a dskini..  I saw the track "moving" on the HxC but at the end 
I got the error message
as if a "ready" signal was not received correctly..

is there any pinout of the controller somewhere ?
before I was using the HxC on a PC  under MSDOS 2.11 (it worked correctly)

thanks

It's been a while since I tried to use them together but there was a certain magic sequence I had to use to get the HXC recognized.  Of course, the first struggle was making sure the wires were connected with the correct side up.  Then I THINK after I booted the CoCo with the HxC attached I had to reset it.
