PDP 11/23 advice

Ooh, how things happen. Opposite problem here - I went to collect a promised 11/23 last weekend that was surplus to a university collection, what I got was a shell with power inlet, power supply, fans and backplane, but not a single board left within. This was to become my first pdp ever, so I'd also like to complete it and have it running... (Shipping the case would have been a problem anyway as I'm located in Germany). > I'd also need a disk at some point, but for now that's out of scope. Included in my haul were three RL01 and one RL02, the last one even including a pack. One of the '01s seems to be quite early, its white indicator/ID plug bears just the ID "0" in small type while the others have their IDs (2x "0", 1x"1") in large type and the word "READY" below, and it doesn't have the cover release access port on the right, so I don't even know whether there is a pack in that one too yet. Needless to say, an even larger problem to ship. (Shameless plug: I didn't get any cabling for the RLxx drives, just one terminator was included, so I'm in the market for some excess cables, perhaps a second term if I want to make them into two chains sometime, and "2" and "3" ID plugs if I want to make them into one long chain. Everything preferably from within continental Europe for ease of handling.) So long, Arno

This is difficult as the problem is clear that you have a FDC related hardware issue. The error occurs when CP/M starts up and attempts to "log the disk in" or generate a map of the directory. Its failing to read a valid directory likely due to the differences between 1771 and 1797 or possibly a bad sector on the media. Note the directory must be cleared (initialized) to all 0xE5. I cannot say what emulator would work best for you. I debug problems like this using a resident monitor rom and instrumented code (lots of messages). Allison > > > I ASK FOR: Anybody has any idea?

I recently received some DECmates with their RX02s (which were still in their furniture/carts). Each 3x3x3 box weighed nearly 150 pounds. The previous owner gave them to me for the price of UPS packing & shipping them. He took them to his local UPS Store and had them do everything from that point. A friend of his helped him take the stuff to the UPS Store. The items were not crated like Allison mentioned above, but were severely bubble-wrapped. Some of it was double-boxed in addition to the bubble wrap and packing peanuts. Needless to say, the UPS driver was less than thrilled about the size & weight of the boxes -- fortunately I was there to help him unload his truck. His truck was the standard size brown truck, not a tractor/trailer like they subcontract for really large items. Bob

Apex / Avocent Outlook EL-40DT EL80DT KVM Switch Firmware

by glen.slick＠gmail.com

Anyone have any old Apex / Avocent Outlook EL-40DT or EL80DT KVM switches around that could check to see which firmware version they have, and if they happen to have firmware version 2.0.3 (or newer) do you also have the means to dump the firmware EPROM to an binary image file? Or does anyone already have a binary image file of the 2.0.3 firmware? I can't find that anywhere on the net. It appears that Apex / Avocent might have only sold the firmware update as a replacement EPROM (as part EL-80DT-FW) and didn't make the image available for download on their website. If you have one of these KVM switches the firmware version can be displayed as shown in page 52 of this manual: ftp://ftp.avocent.com/public/product-upgrades/Outlook/EL40-80DT/OL_DT_UG.pdf -Glen

CP/M load question

by enrico.lazzerini＠email.it

Hi at all, I'm sorry I'm not very prepared and my English is basic. I have a mainboard with CPU Z80 derived from the famous Ferguson Big Board 1 (that i have working fine). It has a CPU Z80A running at 4MHz, 64KByte DRAM, FDC 1797 with external data separator FDC9228BT. It equipped with its own BIOS that is loaded into memory at address F800H but it not has the operating system CP/M. If instead of his eprom i insert the firmware coming from Ferguson Bigboard 1 (which is loaded into memory at address F000H) that has FDC 1771 it run properly loading the operating system CP/M 2.2. I looked in my experience and modified the CP/M loader and CBIOS to point at the entry points of the bios at F800H, so the loader loads into memory correctly ALL the CCP, the BDOS and CBIOS, but it not complete the boot CP/M with the prompt (the error that comes to me is: track 2 sector 1 not found. it is an area where normally there is no CP/M code and that it is regularly read with a simple read command available from the firmware). I ASK FOR: Anybody has any idea? Is there a Z80 emulator where I can load the BIOS and i can try to load the operating system CP/M to see what type of problem? Regards Enri

Slide Rules (was: Calculators)

by mtapley＠swri.edu

James (and Chris), I graduated in 1980, McCallum High School, Austin, Texas. We had a slide rule team, with a coach. In addition, my Biology and physics teachers all let me use slide rule for all homework and tests, giving me credit if my answer was within about 0.5% or so. Dunno whether that counts, but if so would push the date out to 1980. I did get a TI-59 (still have it, sticky keyboard and I'll bet the card reader doesn't work) middle of my senior year. That was a pleasant culture shock... I don't know that I ever saw one of the six-foot-long "supercomputers" :-) .

PDP 11/23 advice

by ian.finder＠gmail.com

Hi everyone, I recently obtained a box of stuff. The box appears to contain a complete 11/23 boardset! I've wanted a PDP 11 for some time, so needless to say, it would be great to make an actual PDP 11/23 out of the boards. My options appear to be purchasing a complete chassis with a backplane, power supply, and IO-- or alternatively building my own replacements for these parts. I'd also need a disk at some point, but for now that's out of scope. Can anyone comment on the feasibility of either of these options? Are chassis something that pop up from time to time? Are there multiple models that will take this board set? Alternatively, is the backplane something fancy I'd be unable to roll my own of? Cheers, - Ian Sent via mobile.

Imaging a Tape

by steve＠stephenmerrony.co.uk

What is the current best practice for creating an image of a SCSI tape in such a way that it can later be used to reliably make a replica of that tape? I have a fully functioning SCSI tape drive (via Linux at the moment) and want to image various sorts of Data General (and other) tapes safely and also duplicate a couple of them. They are in various odd formats. I can use the non-rewinding device (/dev/nrst0 etc) to get individual files off the tapes but that is tedious and writing a tape like that seems like a nightmare. I found tcopy and built it - but it expects two drives and does not deal with the drive-and-file case. Steve DG Info and Restoration Blog - http://stephen.homedns.org/dg/

Natsemi MM5736 pinout

Does anyone happen to have the pinout handy for a Natsemi MM5736 IC (mid-'70s)? In particular, I want to know which pin is GND. I came home with a little Novus 650 calculator yesterday, but the power switch (which switches the ground line) is dead - of course the keypad's heat-staked so before I waste time having to do surgery in order to clean switch contacts, I'd like to see if the calc looks like it might be otherwise functional. cheers Jules
