Hi,
Will this expansion with FPU work with the 500plus expansion card? Thanks!

nope. That will not work
nope. That will not work
The reason?

I tried a similar A1200 RAM expansion. Jens told me only A1200 CPU accelerators will work. And for the most part not many of those A1200 CPU accelerators outside of Indivisions ACA series will not work with the ACA 500 Plus

Ah, makes sense to make it compatible with their own accelerators, more money for them 🤷🏻♂️😂
I think Jens has mentioned that A1200 CPU accelerators not working with the ACA500 Plus are not 'designed by the book'
A pure memory expansion for the A1200 is assuming that it's talking to a 68020 processor. That is not the case with the ACA500plus. It has nothing to do with "more money for iComp" - we do support properly-designed A1200 accelerators, as you can see on the Blizzard cards, which are supported, but won't change anything on our bottom line.
