Auto eject floppy from System 7

Post by Lukis142 »

Hello, I have made an automatic eject floppy drive with an arduino and an old floppy drive. The arduino requires a specific chracter to be sent to its com port to eject the disk. MY question is: can I send this character using the System 7 eject button?

Any help appreciated,

Hmm... I'm pretty sure the mainboard controls the eject signal, and doesn't just pass through the signal from the ADB. So you'll need your character to be the same as whatever the mainboard is sending the drive controller.
