That's how most 3rd-party RX controllers seem to work, in my experience.
Try typing in the MSCP bootstrap.
Why? The RX02/DSD440 is a DY: device, not DU:
The standard RX02 bootstrap uses UNIT=0, so it may
need to
be modified to use UNIT=1 for DY1:, however that stuff is not
accessible to me right now. Does anyone have the release
notes for RT-11? It may be there.
I've had it online for a long time, at
http://www.dunnington.u-net.com/public/ODT/Listings/RXV21BootD
I recently made a minor correction (almost all the DEC printed copies have
several errors). It's a Unit 0 bootstrap, but changing the word at
locations 001036 from 407 to 427 should make it work for Unit 1. At least,
I think so; I used it recently and I think that's what I did.
