Playing a bit with the QD32 I've found out that it has the "big" EPROM,
i.e.
the 27256 32kB ROM, and this one *includes* the diagnostic routines.
So there are the instructions how to enter the built-in routines:
U
I
D/P/W 20001F40 20
D/P/L 20088000 80000000
D/P/L 20088004 80000001
D/P/W 200000EC 1
D/P/W 200000EE 3003
D * 4401
S 80
And here we go:

That looks like the same magic F.R.D. spell shared by at least the
QD21 and QD33 as documented in section 4.7.3 Starting F.R.D. on a
MicroVAX II and a GPX Workstation in these manuals:

Helpful that they kept that consistent across multiple controllers.
