The Epson APEX 100 was found compatible with the
OmniBridge controller.
It was able to support one or
two external disk drives (daisychained) together. The
external drives could be used as high density (1.2M and
1.44M) or normal (360K and 720K) disk drives.

NOTE:
The recommended switch settings for the OmniBridge controller are
as follows:
1-1 DOWN 2-1 DOWN
1-2 DOWN 2-2 DOWN
1-3 DOWN
2-3 UP
1-4 DOWN
2-4 UP
These settings select NO ADDRESS for the OmniBridge BIOS and
allow it to coexist with the internal FDC of the computer in which it
is being installed.
This way you do not need to disable the internal
FDC or connect any cables from the OmniBridge to internal floppy
drives. This was found to be a universal setting for all of the
computers listed above as compatible with the OmniBridge controller.
