    Dyna Software Issue EM3116

    Hi guys, picked up a Dyna EM3116 from an auction. Worked fine after fixing a few small issues, then crashed. I was able to get software from another Dyna owner, but the versions are a little different and some functions dont work. I have version 2.0 of the 4M.exe file, and he sent me 2.2. I know its just the bad EXE since I can run one (the 2.2) in a dosbox sim and the 2.0 file will just crash it. Looks like everything else is working. does anyone have a 2.0 4M.exe file? You can check the version by opening the 4M_SYS.DAT folder with notepad, mine says 2.0 10/27/1997.

    Also once i get this running if anyone needs software (either 2.0 or 2.2) and wiring info let me know. Im also going to be working on converting from a HDD to a SD drive just like I did on my big Acramatic machine.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    I'm looking at a DM2800 with the updated controller with the color screen. Did you ever get the SD drive to work on it. Also can you program in Master cam and then load on the Dyna?
    Thank you for the help

    I think I'm running 2.0, do you still need it?

    Hello there,
    Do you know if you have to configure the cmos and bios if you update the software on the controller? Seems the setting were lost on machine.
