Re: [Ql-Users] Raspberry Pi Pico
I have luckily running SMSQmulator under Java on my Raspberry Pi Linux. But I guess the Raspberry pi pico has no SD card? - Try the project www.digikey.de/en/maker/projects/raspberry-pi-pico-rp2040-sd-card-example-with-micropython-and-cc/e472c7f578734bfd96d437e68e670050 regards Klaus-Peter Greiner Am 31.12.22 um 10:29 schrieb Simon Balderson via Ql-Users > Has anyone seen or used a Raspberry Pi Pico?

What was the cure?

Sorry for the late reply: I am having some health problems.
Wolfgang found the problem and told me how to solve it.
New timings
Conversion of a DBF-file to a DBS-file (from dos1_ to win2_)
Qpc2 : before correction 1423 sec. after correction 24 sec. (59 x
faster)
Smsqmulator : before correction 47 sec. after correction 26 sec.
(1,8 x faster)
Many thanks to Wolfgang.
Have a fine day,

Hi Ralf,
It was a programming error: an instruction ('update') inside a loop
that should have been outside that loop. Ihis implied an 'update'
after each field (in this case 118) instead of only ONE 'update'
outside the loop. (Is this understandable English?)
Why such an important difference between QPC2 (60x slower) and
QMSQmulator (1.8x slower)? Wolfgang told me that QMSQmulator uses its
own 'win-driver'. For more explanation, you 'd better ask Wolfgang or
Marcel. My skills are limited to some easy Sbasic unfortunately.
Thanks for your reply. that makes 2 listeners on this list :).

Re: [Ql-Users] Best practice to clean and restore MDV-Drive(Transport-Rubber, Tape-Head)?
Hello Urs, the following i found in a newsgroup archive: "Check the pinch rollers are properly pushed down on the motor shaft. (officially the gap is specified at 0.25 to 0.5 mm, IMHO it should be as little as possible so long as it turns freely) Cut a 2 -3 mm wide notch in the edge of a business card near the corner so it can be slipped under the pinch roller between it and the spacer If its a thin, flimsy business card, use two. Push the pinch roller down till its tight against the card. Pull the card out carefully. If the pinch roller is badly worn at the bottom, you may want to try taking it off and turning it over. While you are in there, clean any oxide deposits off the head with a cotton bud and some meths or surgical spirits or preferably tape head cleaner. Dont spill meths etc. on the plastic." hth, Klaus-Peter - [shortened] Message - From: "Urs Koenig (QL)" To: Sent: Tuesday, May 12, 2009 5:59 PM Subject: [Ql-Users] Best practice to clean and restore MDV-Drive(Transport-Rubber, Tape-Head)? Hi all, A friend of mine had his QL stored away for more than a decade in a "bad" (wet) place (wet). The QL is working but "looks" very bad (slimy and rusty). Outside cleaning was easy, also was blowing the dust away internally. The first MDV cartridges we've tried to load were "destroyed" by this QL. So, what is Best practice to clean and restore a MDV-Drive (Transport-Rubber, Tape-Head)? Thanks for any support. Best regards, Urs P.S.
