Purchased a Microvax 3800

by lyokoboy0＠gmail.com

I got the power cord for the microvax 3800 in the mail today. I checked the fans as someone suggested, they Spin nice and smooth. I Iooked over everything, nothing seems out of place. I powered the machine on. Very quiet. I expected it to be much louder. I turned the machine on and nothing exploded. The KA660 cpu board has that little red lcd display ion it. A F is displayed. Not sure if that is normal or not. I need a console cable. I have a vt100 that works over here. What is the cable called, is it something i could buy, or is it something that is easy enough to make? --Devin On Tue, Dec 8, 2015 at 3:37 PM, devin davison <lyokoboy0 at gmail.com> wrote: > "So a 9-track open-reel SCSI drive should work just as well as a DDS, > DLT, SLT drive." > > Oh wow. i had not even considered that.

Source for DEC DC005 bus drivers.

by mattislind＠gmail.com

I just recently had a RXV21 board that I inserted into the backplane and then completely hung a few bits on the bus. It was a DC005 bus transceiver chip that had failed. First it seemed impossible to find such a chip, but then I recognized that Signetics had put their own code own them as well, C2324N. Searching on Ebay gave this result: http://www.ebay.com/itm/281679682476 I bought some and they just arrived and worked perfectly. /Mattis

QIC Tape help with CRC - Dwight?

by microtechdart＠gmail.com

While I'm new to speak up here, I've been watching for a while. I've also used the name "MightyFrame" on groups, although that email address is not registered with this list. A few months back, I published a page decoding QIC-24 format. http://mightyframe.blogspot.com/2015/08/qic-24-tape-data-block-format-decod… Dwight posted a very meaningful response to this about the CRC on my site, and it has taken me this long just to get to it. Thanks again for that, Dwight! This project has gone very well for me, with one hangup...the CRC. I've never calculated one of these before, and I'm struggling with this one. I have a QIC-24 block of data attached in a .txt file, and I just can't get the calculations to work. For my simple understanding so far, I'm using an online calculator to test this: http://bit.ly/1YbHUZ7 That URL is pre-programmed with the polynomial and the "message" that should provide the CRC result of 0xE8CE (decimal 59598) But, it doesn't. I created this file, wrote it to tape, then read it again and tested it. It is 100% correct for the QIC-24 tape system. This is block 3 of 4 of the file that I have extracted, and am testing here. The ANSI QIC-24 standard booklet (X3.136-1986) says something that I know is a clue, but I just don't understand. "The cyclical redundancy check (CRC) shall consist of two bytes, calculated over the 512 bytes of interchange data, and the 4-byte block address, *starting with all ONEs, CRC initial value*, and using the CRC Generating polynomial: x16 + x12 + x5 + 1 *"starting with all ONEs, CRC initial value"*? What does THAT mean? Do I need to do some kind of register shift? xorin or xorout? I've even played with http://reveng.sourceforge.net/, but I'm having trouble even understanding the meaning of the input values and parameters with this. I appreciate any feedback that anyone can give, here. -- Thanks, -AJ http://MicrotechM1.blogspot.com http://MightyFrame.com

Four-phase non-overlapping clock generator using PIC microcontroller

by spacewar＠gmail.com

In the 1970s, some microprocessors and support chips used four-phase NMOS logic. Some, including the Rockwell PPS-4 and PPS-8, generated the four non-overlapping clock phases on-chip based on two external clock inputs, while others, including the TI TMS9900, the Western Digital CP1600 chip set (used in DEC LSI-11 and Alpha Micro AM100), and the WD9000 chipset (used in Pascal Microengine), required an external four-phase clock generator. Typically the four-phase clock inputs required a voltage swing close to the Vss and Vdd supply rails (0 to +12V). TI and Western Digital offered support chips to generate the four-phase clock, although it was often done with a crystal, 74S logic, and MOS drivers such as the National Semiconductor MH0026 dual MOS driver or the Intel 3245 quad MOS driver. I've recently had occasion to work on interfacing to some of these old chips, and wanted a modern four-phase clock generator. I've just written and tested code to use a Microchip PIC16F1575 as a clock generator, though it only has 5V outputs, so it will require external gate drivers, such as a Microchip TC4469 quad gate driver, to obtain the 12V swing. The PIC16F1575 is a fairly new part using Microchip's enhanced midrange core. It is in a 14-pin package, has an internal oscillator, PLL, and four 16-bit PWM modules. The PWM modules can operate independently, but for this purpose it was convenient that they can be synchronized. I've configured the PIC to use the 8 MHz internal oscillator, with a 4x PLL for a 32 MHz clock going into the processor and the PWM modules. The CPU speed doesn't matter, but that gives timing resolution of around 31ns for the PWM. I've configured the PWMs for a period of 16 clock cycles (500 ns, 2 MHz), clock high pulses of three clock cycles (93ns), and delay between phases of one clock cycle (31ns). This could be trivially changed to a 2.67 MHz clock by reducing the period to 12 cycles and hte clock high pulses to two clock cycles (62ns). Either set of timings is within the specifications of the TI and Western Digital parts. A word of caution: when using gate drivers to drive old NMOS parts, I recommend the use of series resistors of at least 10 ohms and schottky diode clamps to Vss and Vdd, to ensure that undershoot and overshoot (due to ringing) are limited to 0.3V. The C source code is released under the GPLv3 license on github: https://github.com/brouhaha/4phaseclk

DEC MM15 core mem found

by j_hoppe＠t-online.de

I help cleaning out a large repository of DEC parts. There a quantity of DEC core module assemblies appeared. According to PDF docs these must be PDP-15 MM15's, but no labels are on the boards. I show/offer some of them at retrocmp.com/flipchipshop , under "core memory" Can somebody confirm they are MM15's? Are any PDP-15 running at all? Thanks, Joerg

CDC Finch Alternatives Today [WAS:RE: Evotek Winchester Harddisk]

by t.gardner＠computer.org

The manual u cited states, "The disk controller can control either a CDC or Finch drives. All drives attached to any controller must be of one type." I'm not sure what they mean by "CDC" but if u are lucky it might mean "SMD." According to the 1983 Disk/Trend Finch interfaces were available on the Wren 9415-32 (Finch and ST506) and the Wren 94153 (Finch only). So u might look for a 94153 or a Finch variant of the 9415-32. The Finch spec data interface specs include 13440 unformatted bytes per revolution using an 806 KB/sec data rate, which are the very old at that time 3330 industry standards. There are very few small drives that use this standard, not even the 94153 (10,080 @ 605 KB/sec) so what happens with the drive at a different frequency and the controller with a possibly a different number of raw bytes per track is unpredictable. Note that 10080 x 806/605 is close enough to 13440 so any 10,080 @ 605 KB/sec drive might be made to work if the recording channel has margin at the higher frequency; unfortunately there are not very many. A bigger problem might be the command and control interface of the Finch - it is not like the ST506/412. Off the top of my head it looks like a variant on SMD. BTW SMD data specs are exactly 1.5x3330, that is 20,160 bytes @ 1.209 MB/sec so a small SMD might work if the recoding channel can deal with the lower data rate, perhaps the 8715 FSD. You might want to compare pin by pin SMD to Finch to see if this is even possible. There were some small SMDs, e.g. Micropolis 1403, Priam 804 but most were 14-inch. Perhaps there is a CDC SMD expert in this group that can help Tom -----Original Message----- From: Oliver Lehmann [mailto:lehmann at ans-netz.de] Sent: Monday, December 07, 2015 11:39 AM To: General Discussion: On-Topic and Off-Topic Posts Subject: Re: Evotek Winchester Harddisk Tom Gardner <t.gardner at computer.org> wrote: > Sorry If I didn't make myself clear, I am suggesting one never acquire > an Evotek drive today other than perhaps as an historical curiosity. > > > > The Finch was a short lived 8-inch HDD that went up to 42 MB > unformatted BUT according to Disk/Trend It did not use an ST506 > interface but instead came with this variety of interfaces: Finch, > LDI, SMD or SA1000!

The newest one acquired is a PERQ-1 (and it is in good condition...boots just fine.... ..and just got the report that it booted about a week ago after the chassis with HD arrived) Only problem is we don't know the password for the user (and the guest account is disabled). I know about it, because I rescued it for him out here in Atlanta. And I only rescued it because I had knew Skeezics was a fan from some postings on sun-rescue years ago. I almost gave him a heart attack when I told I had picked it up and it was his, he just had to pay shipping...

When I called the original owner he said this was the last one he had (bummer) but he remembers them fondly (and I was even able to find a picture of one in the history part of his company web site... not sure if it's the actual unit I picked up, but could be... ) I don't believe Skeezics is on cctalk, but he has a number of them. Lots of good stories, his Dad worked at 3Rivers.... Skeezics I beleive also has the OS source and got the last machine that they had left when they closed down. He works on the emulator, etc. and has been chatting with Al about PERQs as well... If you want to see about visiting his collection let me know... Earl the Squirrel

OS/400 was and is a good OS (if you have clear in mind what it can and what it can't do). Meanwhile, you could request a free AS/400 access to the folks at pub1.rzkh.de and play with OS/400.

Anyone interested in old (PDP-8 driven) Radio Automation hardware?

by derschjo＠gmail.com

Hi all -- I have recently acquired a PDP-8/m system that was used to drive a radio automation rig (very very similar to this: http://www.bowkera.com/kcbs1.htm ). My understanding is that this system hooked to banks of what were essentially 8-track tape drives, each of which held a short loop of tape (containing a song, an ad, call info, etc.) and the 8/m was programmed with a playlist of sorts so that even in the early 70s you didn't need to have a real DJ on premises to run a radio station. (I had no idea this sort of thing went back that far!) This one was used at KRDU (Fresno's Christian Radio). At any rate, it's neat hardware. All I have is the 8/m, a custom front panel (as seen in the pictures on the site I linked above) and a bank of Omnibus backplanes holding cards that would drive the tapes and mix audio. I really have no use for the tape-control / audio mixing hardware since I don't have the tapes and I'm not *really* planning on running an automated radio station out of my basement (though it does sound fun). I'm not about to scrap the stuff (it's at least useful for parts) but I thought I'd see if anyone out there could actually make use of it for its intended purpose. - Josh

ModemDoctor and Hank Volpe

by cctalk＠fahimi.net

I was wondering if anyone on the list may have contact info for Mr. Volpe the author of ModemDoctor. I attempted to send in the registration fee for his service based on the address on his website. The letter was returned "not deliverable". The site does get occasional updates so he is still around and apparently still accepting orders. Thanks -Ali

I now know exactly what my future plans are... But I have a "random" question for those here. I know some of the QBUS (and UNIBUS) SCSI controllers can act both as an MSCP and TMSCP controller. (CMD CQD-220A/TM for one example.) And I know that several of the PDP-11 operating systems install from tape, and can install >from TMSCP tape (hello RSTS/E). What I'd like to know is: Is there anything out there that can emulate a SCSI tape device on a CF card/SD card/USB stick/what-have-you? Best regards, Christian -- Christian M.

Maximizing value selling a working 11/34

by jnc＠mercury.lcs.mit.edu

> I seriously doubt the splitting of the H960 from its feet or not will > influence the outcome of a job position. I don't know, because I don't know enough about their exact financial state. But it doesn't matter, for two reasons: First, given that it's for a good cause, it shouldn't matter; it will help, that's all one needs to know. Second, even if it weren't for a good cause, "the splitting of the H960 from its feet" is - or should be - No Big Deal anyway. It's not like the parts are going to be melted down, or anything; they will just be re-arranged. So someone who has e.g. a three-bay system, with feet on the two end cabinets, would probably be quite happy with a fourth bay without feet. And at the same time, someone who has a one-bay system with no feet would probably be ecstatic to finally find feet. Everyone's happy, all the parts are in good homes; where, exactly, is the problem?

We know nothing of the business situation. small consulting firms are notorious for having huge swings in cash flow. It may be that the business in question really is dying, or they may have a monster sized check "in the mail" from a client, and the owner just needs some cash to get over the holiday. A close relative of mine has a small consulting firm, and she goes through periods of months with no money coming in, even with clients owing her six figures in payments.

> bah! sacrilege! So you've got someone working for you, been working for you for years, and you think it's more important to not commit the sacrilege of splitting up an H960 and its feet, rather than to have to tell them they're fired, that they have to go home and tell their spouse and kids that their parent doesn't have a job any more?

> From: Johnny Billquist > (Or maybe I'm just naive in thinking that people who request assistance > to maximize their profits targeting the same crowd they ask for > assistance from (for free) is abusive.) _I_ am not selling the item in question; I merely happen to know the seller, and am doing them a favour (since I happen to sympathize with people whose jobs are about to disappear). I expect they will use eBay to actually sell the item; I am fairly certain that it _will not_ be offered through this list. So I think your statement above contains at least two mistaken assumptions.

New release of FreePascal

by linimon＠lonesome.com

So I just saw this commit go by on the FreeBSD ports mailing list. Since some people were talking about Pascal a month or two ago, I thought it might be of interest to them.

Looking for AS/400

by fink＠stenoweb.net

Hi there, Recently, I've been reading up into AS/400s.. They seem like really neat machines, and look really sharp with those matching block terminals. I remember retail stores using those, and I always wondered what kind of a system they were running on... I figured it was DOS! I've been having trouble locating one, however. Anybody have one lying around, or know of where to find one in the Toronto area? It needn't be a high spec machine, just something to play with OS/400 and a terminal. Thanks! -brian

Evotek Winchester Harddisk

Hi, has anyone ever heard of Evotek ET-5800 series Winchester harddisks? I wonder which interface they have. I'm looking for a replacement of a CDC FINCH 9410 and wonder if they would be a possible replacement.

Pair of PDP-11/04's available

by jnc＠mercury.lcs.mit.edu

So I've been informed that a pair of PDP-11/04's are available, Chicago US area. The price isn't set - someone else has offered the owner ~$400, which seems a bit low to me (although I don't know what peripherals/memory are included, if any). One is in a 5" box, and one in an 11"; both apparently include the basic "Operator's Console" (i.e. halt and reset toggles). Contact Patrick Lynn at 815-838-0134 if interested. Noel
