cxy-08 baud rate

by Antonio.Carlini＠riverstonenet.com

>Does anyone have info regarding dipswitch settings on the cxy-08? There are two switch packs. With the board facing you and the Qbus connectors downwards, the lefthand switch pack (10 switches) is E36 and the righthand one (8 switches) is E28. They may even be labelled. E36 switches 2->10 set A12->A04 for the address. A21-A13 are all 1s (not settable). A03-A00 are all 0s (not settable). E36 switch 1 sets DHU mode (off) or DHV mode (switch on) E28 switch 1 must be on E28 switch 2 must be off E28 switches 3-8 set the vector V08->V03 V15->V09 and V02->V00 are all 0s. Standard settings are 17760440 and 300 (both in octal). Antonio

The guy who threw out the 11/70 (was: Vax 8600 on Ebay)

He tried to find someone to take it, for free, for several months. Unfortunately he didn't have the room to store it any longer. He didn't know about this list, but he does now, and he's going to be joining in the next couple of days. I don't doubt he couldn't find anyone. A couple of months ago I posted about the HSCxx controllers and drives, and nobody has wanted to go to pick them up. They'll end up getting thrown out, too, if someone doesn't pick them up in the next month. -- Eric Dittman dittman(a)dittman.net Check out the DEC Enthusiasts Club at http://www.dittman.net/

Old Sun (& SGI) Equipment Available [Last Call]

by aek＠spies.com

> Will no one save this stuff from the dumpster?? Amazing! -- Not amazing at all. How many people are near Scranton? At least keep the 9 track. It's not THAT big, and can read 800->6250 tapes. If not, could I at least get the BOARDS out of the tape drive (esp the read/write board, which is fairly hard to get)

Do you have some M20 related software/information? I'm always interested in that... regards, chris

PDP 11/70, XXDP diagnostics & OT question

by quapla＠xs4all.nl

Hello All, Well, finally I have my 11/70 fully running. The last problem I had was due to a faulty cable (wire?) in one of the address cables going to the address buffer of the MOS box. I can now boot XXDP from an RL02, but unfortunately, my overview of executable diagnostic routines is not covering the 11/70. Is there someone who has the names of the diags I can execute to validate the machine? I also tried to boot RT11 (5.05) but this does not come further than doing a few I/O's before the machne stops. I know it isn't supported, but if I'm not misinformed, it may run anyway? Another question, more or less OT, is there someone who kan help me with an Texas Instruments adapter/charger for a TI-59 (red led, magnetic card reader etc), preferable 220V, but 110V will do too.

PDP 11/70, XXDP diagnostics

The problem with RSX was as Johnny Billquist already indentified due to a missing LTC signal. This is solved by placing a jumper on the backplane to get the signal on the bus when generated from the DL11-W. It is described in the FSE docs, so it is just a matter of counting the pins and make the connection. I have also executed some diagnostics, only cache test #2 fails partly, is mentions a possible problem with the ADM. Besides that problem, the machine works fine. So, I have now a nice running 11/70, and the only thing left to do is to transport the RM03 one floor up into the machine room :=( Thanks, Ed > ---------- > To unsubscribe (or subscribe) from (to) this list, send a message to > info-pdp11-request(a)village.org, with the first line of the message > body being "unsubscribe" or "subscribe", respectively (without the quotes). -- The Wanderer | Politici zijn gore oplichters. quapla(a)xs4all.nl | Europarlementariers: zakkenvullers http://www.groenenberg.net | en neuspeuteraars.

'Windowing' programs

by xds_sigma7＠hotmail.com

Well I've never run NeXTStep, and I hate UNIX with a passion. Of course, I have something like 10-15 or more UNIX boxes, but yanno.. heh.. Personally, I'd like to try NeXTStep, but not on a NeXT.
