I've send some requests to more places and providers.
You can be sure that I tell you the info when
I have it.
In fact, I'm interested not only cause of the RD52.
I have in mind try to connect TWO hard disks. I think
that could be possible to put two partitions (DL0
and DL1, by example) in the first disk, and DL3 and DL4
in the second.
Mmmm... this takes me to ask another question: How much DL
units (that is, RL0x devices) could be defined in one
PDP-11/23 PLUS system (my personal object of study) ?
This ask has a practical meaning: My system could has
in a near future installed one DILOG DQ614
and one RL02 controller with one RL02 disk unit attached.
And I has six RL02 cartridges that I like to use.
Greetings and Best Regards from Spain

Hello. I have one question to somebody that
managed
one DILOG DQ-614 in sometime. I've read the instructions
of the DQ696 and the proceddings to access the ROM
menu of this board appears to be applicable to the DQ614;
that is, when I type:
@7775000G
... in the ODT prompt of one PDP-11/23 PLUS, appears
inmediately the '*' prompt.
But, when I type 'FT', the prompt simply appears again.
No menu. Nothing. If you send a break to the system,
it makes appear again the @ prompt of the ODT.
My interest about this is in access this phantom menu to
be capable of partitioning and formating one RD52 Hard Disk
that is connected to the board.
I would love to hear more about this! I have had a DQ-614 for
over 10 years and have never been able to use it. Recently,
someone has posted the jumper settings on a web page, but I have
not managed to get the formatting software from anywhere.
I had no idea there might be a hidden formatting menu.
More! More!
