the image.
Connect these two wires will my the power park activated.

Step 2. now look back floppy drive there should 34 for pin the the floppy cable shown on the image.
There 2 rows on pins
2 to 34 Pin (Red) Active Pin 1 to 33 Ground (Black)

Step 3A. Take a Floppy Drive cable cut end of it the size with twist in the cable (1.)

Step 3B. Cable with end off

Step 3C. now street the cable

Step 3D. now cut down the cable so you have 34 cables (be very careful as the blade very sharp)

when finish cutting look look this

Step 4. now count the wire you cut and get

11, 12, 17, 18, 19, 20 starting for left side (yellow dote end top at the red line)

over wires you cut then off or been over and on type on them

Step 5. now connect 11 and 12 giver

then
now connect 17 and 19 giver

pin 18, 20 for Arduino

A, floppy B mode to activate it The light of the floppy drive should turn on made it in mode B
B, floppy Direction
C, floppy Step
D, Floppy Grounds

Step 6, now do step 3 to step 5, 5 more time

Step 7, now take your cable and power cable and plug then into floppy drive

some floppy drive cable have one pin cover so you have had to drill it out with 1 or 1.5 drill ( very care when doing this as only want
the cover )

Step 8. now take your Arduino and put the wire form the floppy into it

A, put the Foppey Ground to - Ground of the Arduino

B, put the 17 pin cable to pin 3
C, put the 20 pin cable to pin 2
D, Don't do anythen it this

( I only done one drive here but same thing for all driver)

20 pin cable to pin 4

17 pin cable to pin 5

20 pin cable to pin 6

17 pin cable to pin 7

and so on Arduino 13 pin max

Step 9 Establish a connection to your Arduino.

Download, Arduino Software - Download and Timer 1 - Download and Arduino Moppy Download

First thing install Arduino Software (Guide Here) after finish

download Timer 1 and it in (Documents\Arduino\libraries)

Download Arduino Moppy and put in Go to (Documents\Arduino)

step 10, now open Arduino software and open your Arduino Moppy

cope the RXTXcomm to this folder

14 de 23 27/08/2014 22:21
Musical Floppy Drive http://stepbystepprojects.co.uk/musical_floppy_drive.htm

now back one so in jdk1.8.0_05\jre

and then open bin

now cope the rxtxParallel.dll and rxtxSerial.dll
