===Installations Instructions===
Because this device works in thousands of different types of equipments, there is no one installation instruction.  Its recommended to refer to the manual of the equipment that the drive is going into to find out how to replace a floppy drive.  The device is plug and play and as long as the correct drive is ordered the drive should work right after installing.
{{notice|Be sure to connect PIN 1 on the data cable to PIN 1 on the drive.  Likewise, be sure to connect the power cable to the correct power pin on the drive.  Some cables and machines might be mislabeled so be sure to check not only the cable but, where the cables go to make sure the drive power and data are both on the correct pins.}}

Two Floppy To USB drives - slim size (on left) and standard

The FloppyToUSB device is a floppy disk drive emulator that is designed to replace a 3 1/2 floppy drive with a USB drive.

The Floppy To USB drive seamlessly replaces the original floppy disk drive with a USB reader device. Instead of inserting a floppy disk into the drive, a user inserts a USB thumb drive. There are no additional software or drivers needed.

The device is sold by PLR Electronics and can be purchased at http://www.BuyUSBFloppyUpgrade.com.

There are two different sizes of the USB upgrade. There is the standard size and the slim or laptop size. The standard size replaces most all 3 1/2 floppy drives that are the normal PC laptop size. The slim or laptop size is for replacing drives that are the very thin or laptop sized.

The standard Floppy to USB is 34 pins with 4 power pins. However, there are other versions of this model size that have 26 pins and do not have separate power pins. When purchasing the drive, it is helpful if the user knows what model or version of floppy drive they have.

History and sales

The Floppy to USB converter drive was created in the early 2000s to replace floppy disks and floppy disk drives which were becoming obsolete. The Floppy to USB drive was created to be able to upgrade almost every 3 1/2 floppy disk drive in existence. The Floppy to USB drive is an ideal solution for both American and Japanese-type drives and can be found globally. Other well known drives the Floppy to USB drive replaces are IBM, TEAC, Panasonic, Sony, Citizen, Hitachi, Mitsubishi, NEC, among many more.

The device is sold by PLRElectronics and can be purchased at http://www.BuyUSBFloppyUpgrade.com

The Floppy to USB is an ideal solution to replace floppy disk drives on machines or equipment that originally did not have the USB technology. Many of these machines are no longer upgradable and the equipment or machines is too expensive to replace. Some examples of these types of industrial equipments are CNC machines, embroidery equipment, analysis tools, hospital equipment, logging devices, etc.

Some common equipments that are still in use today but have Floppy Drives are HAAS CNC machines, Tajima Embroidery Equipment, Agilent, OKUMA, Sodick, Barudan embroidery equipment, Yamaha keyboards and pianos, etc.

Dimensions

Back of one of the Floppy to USB models
Back of one of the Floppy to USB models

The Floppy To USB upgrade is designed to replace most every 3 1/2 floppy disk drive. The dimensions should be the same as a regular floppy drive and all the screw mounts should also match up to the existing chassis.

The "slim" or "laptop" drive is 95mm Wide, 12mm Tall, 132mm Deep (including the face). Or in English, 3 3/4 IN Wide, Less than 1/2 IN Tall, 5 1/4 IN Deep (including the face).

The standard drive is 100mm Wide, 25mm Tall, 145mm Deep (including the face). Or in English Less than 4 IN Wide, Less than 1 IN Tall, and Less than 5 3/4 IN Deep (including the face).

Troubleshooting and Known Issues

The drives have jumpers that are preset at the distributorship. If the correct USB-XXXX code is used then the drive will plug right in and work without any issues. However if the drive and jumpers do not match the original drive settings then to check the PLR Electronics Support Site for the correct settings or any other troubleshooting issues.

Some equipment manufactures decided to produce their own floppy drives or floppy drive housing rather than buying from the major disk drive producers such as IBM or Sony. In these vary rare cases the equipment might have to be slightly modified to accommodate a regular floppy drive. In most every instance, its much cheaper to modify the equipment and upgrade the drive rather than to buy expensive and rare floppy drives that were only made in very short run.

Installations Instructions

Because this device works in thousands of different types of equipments, there is no one installation instruction. Its recommended to refer to the manual of the equipment that the drive is going into to find out how to replace a floppy drive. The device is plug and play and as long as the correct drive is ordered the drive should work right after installing.

}}Be sure to connect PIN 1 on the data cable to PIN 1 on the drive. Likewise, be sure to connect the power cable to the correct power pin on the drive. Some cables and machines might be mislabeled so be sure to check not only the cable but, where the cables go to make sure the drive power and data are both on the correct pins.
