FloppyEmu not working on Lisa 2
AlexTheCat123:
It's really odd that this isn't just working for you as-is! I've got my Floppy Emu hooked straight to a 2/5 I/O board right now, using one of these cool card cage breakout boards, and it works perfectly, without a Lite Adapter or anything in between. And there isn't any hardware that modifies the floppy signals on the breakout board either. Unless I'm missing something obvious here, I don't see any reason why the same thing wouldn't apply in an actual 2/10 chassis.

I see that RolandJuno's Breakout Board makes no connection to pin 20 of the floppy connector, which is where the PWM speed signal would be.
I suspect this confirms that the Floppy Emu doesn't need the PWM signal (come to think of it, maybe the 800k drive didn't use it either, only the 400k?), in which case, OP's issue seems unrelated to the Lite Adapter.
Perhaps the Floppy Emu software version is relevant?

Just to confirm: You have flashed your Floppy Emu with the Macintosh and Lisa firmware and have it in Lisa mode, correct?

Here is a video demonstrating my process. I have flashed the FloppyEmu with the newest firmware update. Let me know if there is something I am doing wrong
ried:
Since you are using MacWorks, try using the Floppy Emu's Macintosh mode (rather than Lisa).
I think that rainbow cable is not a stock Lisa cable...? I wonder if that could also be a contributing factor?
