I'll have to check the modules on my machine, but
if I recall
correctly it has the console module that has 1 serial port and the
asynchronous SLU module for the printer. Is there another serial port
lurking on the console module that I don't know about?
No... they are obvious... sounds like you have a KDF-11B, if I
remember the numbers correctly.
I was talking about a DLJ11-V - a 4-port dual-height card that was
common in 11/03s and dual-height 11/23 systems (KDF-11A)... one port
was strapped to be the console, and the other three had "standard"
addresses that meant that in a typical system, you only had to worry
about baud rate and parity jumpers to put the card to full use.
In the case of your CPU card, you might or might not have to re-strap
the CSR and vector of the secondary port to make it useful to talk to
a TU-58 or TU-58 emulator. Perusal of the handbooks will clarify
what's needed (I've never done it, but it shouldn't be too hard).
