Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

Every time I try one of the dumpers (tried 2 yesterday) I just get time out messages - the FZ is set to MIDI remote (do not know if there is another mode as it is fixed at REMOTE) and any attempt to send from FZ or from PC results in nothing but time outs - the other midi functions are fine - dumps to disk fine - I just cannot get any PC connection to work. I presume it needs both IN and OUT connecting - which I have done - but I get zilch.

no pc cant read  the disk ut you can use a 
special card to read the format
 
the floppy emulator software allows fzf files to be 
used as images 
 
depends on what os you are using i have never had a 
problem with xp or win98 with the dumping programs
 
if you go to butchy net he has a good dumping 
program
 
the fz sharware collection should be 150+ disks as 
thats what i have unless not all are loaded
 
i also have the full eII library for the fz range 
as when  i went from EII to fz i converted them all with sounddesigner 2 
back in the late 80,s
