Hi, anybody out there playing with Vax's? Trying
to work out if I have connect the terminal correctly or if the logic board is dead. I
posted on openvmshobbyist.com, but that forum seems pretty sleepy. Is there any other
forum for VMS thats active?

It's a bit hard to tell without a description of what terminal and
wiring you got going. One trick many people fall for is the VAXStations
use the printer port for the console and not, the one that would actual
make sense. The serial port. I think on the 90's you get a DB25 and a
MMJ port. Its the MMJ port for console. Did you change the S3 switch to
serial console ? Null modem adapter ?
On an aside if any of you have 4000/96 sell those guys. They are going
for over $3,000 on ebay now.
