@kanjiology Check the BlueSCSI operating voltage in the Log file, It is updated at every system startup.

The hardware acceleration offered by the PhantomX, consumes significantly more energy.

Quote from: spectreman on July 29, 2024, 03:21:56 AM@kanjiology The SCSI low level message appears when the device is not receiving enough power.

You can check if the voltage is correct in the log file on the SD of your BlueSCSI.

It looks like this:
INFO: Pico Voltage: 3.254 V.

I see, I am using this PSU https://github.com/leaded-solder/x68000-pro-picopsu and it had been working fine. Maybe the PhantomX is consuming too much juice? Maybe I should upgrade the PicoPSU inside.

Quote from: spectreman on July 18, 2024, 08:34:42 AMThe backplate comes in two colours, black or light grey, but if you don't give your preference, the black one will be sent to you.
I asked if he had any light gray backplates and was told they cannot be manufactured in gray.
Yes, the manufacturer is right, in the photo he sent me, the protective film makes the backplates look light gray.

Most likely, since they are made of the same material as the black PCB, the production costs are low, making them in another color would increase the production costs.
Agreements with the Chinese company that produces them.

Something weird happened to me, I started getting "So low SCSI level" all of a sudden on all my SCSI emulator devices, BlueSCSI v1/v2 and even Henkan Banchou, this is internally on the PRO. I tried the external centronics port and it works fine... go figure. BlueSCSI V2 works really well now for me, every game loads fine.

I installed a PhantomX into my PRO and now Bonanza Bros loads fine... Just an FYI. I can try other games if anyone wants to know more about the PhantomX compatibility.

They all come with the new firmware for 16MHz machines.

Since I covered Metajo last month, of course now I had to do the sequel: "Zai Metajo"!

I don't think there is any.
There is a 68k command line emulator called run68 with which you can run x68000 stuff on window. You may have a look on it.
