That must be a new use of the word "fun" of which I was previously unaware.
;-)
Now, I just mounted the RA70 disks I got into their
rack and dusted them
off. They are mounted four in box similar to the RA90 and has a small
front panel. I have only found the Pocket Reference Guide. So I'm
wondering: does anyone have a manual?
Alternatively, can anyone give me an introduction how to operate the
front panel. Can I run diagnostics like on the RA90 ?
I, too, would appreciate any documentation pointers or especially
"lessons learned" with RA7X drives. My former SDI experience was all
with RA81 drives (starting back when they were $24,000!) but I have a
couple of RA70s that I'd love to use either in a BA123 with either a
MicroVAX II or a KDJ11, or with my 8300/KDB50 or an 11/750/UDA50.
ISTR there were "internal" SDI cables that weren't as sturdy for
in-cabinet use. I only have external, heavy, black, rubberized SDI
cables. A pointer to where to acquire light-weight SDI cables would
be good to have.
Thanks,
