Hello,
Your doing better than I am! I found a cable with the mmj connectors,
but am still not able to get anything on my vt320! I have a MicroVax
3400, and the "progress" code eventually goes to 1 (one). Any ideas?

Hi
Thanks for the information below. I was able to acquire the MMJ connector
and was able to get the VaxServer properly interfaced with the vt340...sort
of!
When I boot them up they start up as you described below without any
problem...but the keyboard does not seem to be able to make any input. The
keyboard seems to be in working order, since I can switch to setup mode,
using the "Setup" F3 key. But no other key will do anything.
When the VAX complete the booting process I have the following screen:
KA41-B V1.4
F_..E...D...C...B...A...9...8...7...6...5...4_..3_..2_..1?..
? C 0080 0000.4001
?? 1 00C0 0011.700E

I believe this is an easy fix, (probably in setup)but obviously I am
clueless why I cannot get any input from the LK201 keyboard.
BTW: can you tell what operating system this is on?
The VAX is VaxServer 3100 (says "series BAA 4B" on back). I opened it up and
found 3 hard drives
I am considering running OpenVMS freeware on this and was wondering what is
the upgrade paths to making this more effective: CD-ROM, Hard Drive, Memory.
It has an obsolete looking tape drive and one space for another internal
drive.
Thanks for your help, it has been very useful thus far.
