What is the configuration of jumpers?
I have tried the following:
??? 1?? 2?? 3?? 4?? 5?? 6?? 7?? 8?? 9?? 10
?? --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
S1 Off On? Off Off Off Off Off Off On? Off
S1 On? On? Off Off Off Off On? Off Off Off
S1 On? On? Off Off On On? Off Off On? Off
S1 On? Off Off Off On? On? Off Off On? Off
Maybe some others, never get anything to the screen.
I have some cards that are marked TP1:Red TP2:Blk TP4:Clr
and other cards marked TP1:Red TP2:Clr TP4:Blk
I would really like to hear from someone that has it working rather than
risking popping something.

So far nothing puts ?@?, or anything on the screen.

According to the documentation EK-M9312-TM-002 M9312
Bootstrap-Terminator Module Technical Manual
there are two addresses to use for the Console Emulator.
165020 (765020) ?for Console with Diagnostics ?SW 1 and 7 on
165144 (765144) ?for Console w/o Diagnostics ??SW 1,5,6,9 on
The switch settings below correspond to xxx004.. which is probably
the first drive for the ROM in position 1 and does
not invoke diagnostics.
Have you tried 173000 (773000)?

Any suggestions? ?I have other M9312s I could try.

Jumping over the settings. They seem OK, as you get the AB in
Hyperterm.
That 777564 shows 000200 is also correct (as I remember that): it
indicates ?transmit buffer empty?.
You can also try it the other way:
* type one character in Hyperterm
* check that 777560 has the receiver buffer full flag set (000200)
* in 777562 you will see the typed character (in octal)
773024 showing 165024 rings a bell. IIRC, 165024 is the start
address of the monitor on the M9312.
That is the PROM ?in the middle? on the board.
I think that if you enter CLR, 165024 LAD, CTRL/START you will get
the ?@?.
BTW, there is a second start address. One does some diagnostics,
the other does not.
My guess that on 773000 and you getting 773002 on the display means
that you try to boot
from a ?device? that is specified in one of the four PROMs, but the
PROM socket is empty ?

I am back in front of the machine:
The M7856 is set thusly:
???1 ?2 ?3 ?4 ?5 ?6 ?7 ?8 ?9 10
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
S5 DN DN DN UP DN DN UP DN DN UP
S3 DN DN UP DN UP UP DN UP DN UP
S1 UP UP DN UP DN DN UP UP DN UP
S4 UP UP DN DN UP UP DN DN DN UP
S2 DN DN UP DN DN UP DN DN -- --
The M9312 is set thusly:
???1 ?2 ?3 ?4 ?5 ?6 ?7 ?8 ?9 10
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
S1 UP UP DN DN DN DN UP DN DN DN
This should be 300, 8, Odd, 1
I have what I think is null modem between the M7856 cable and a PC
running XP with Hyperterm set to 300, 8,O,1
Troubleshooting from the programmers console:
CNTRL plus HALT, no bus hang.
CLR, 777566, LAD, 101, DEP, Hyperterm shows: A
CLR, 777566, LAD, 102, DEP, Hyperterm shows: AB (the B popped up
next to
the previous A )
CLR, 777564, LAD, EXAM, display shows: 000200
CLR, 773024, LAD, EXAM, display shows: 165024
CLR, 773024, LAD, EXAM, display shows: 165024
CLR, 773000, LAD, CNTRL plus START, console says: 173002
I am thinking that the Hyperterm should be seeing an "@" and I
should be
able to boot from there.
Any thoughts?
Sincerely,
John Welch
