If you assume that the Computer and the drive use the standard IEC protocol (without burst mode), this will never happen. If burst mode is taken into account, SRQ will be used, but we already know what would be send. However, there are many fastloader protocols, and there, you cannot assume that nothing is send before ATN. Unfortunately, without support for fastloaders, I do not think such a device would be very helpful. Regards, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
