Hello,

Thank you

If I've correctly understood, all who use Hercules 3.0x have this problem?
I'm running Hercules on Windows 7.=20

Sense bytes show that tape needs operator intervention.  I don't know what =
WRI and EOC mean.

I think the cause of this situation is that on real iron rewinding of tape =
takes some time, so SIO returns with CE and maybe CUE bits set in CSW, but =
in Hercules tape is rewinding at once, so DE bit is set too.
The only thing I can't understand, if it worked correctly on Hercules 2.16,=
 2.17, 2.18; it doesn't work normally on newer versions?
