Now that my 11-23+ ("George" :) seems to be happy, it's time to
start playing with the other new acquisition, an 11/24. Maybe that
one will be "Elvis".
It's got quite a lot of cards inside, but I haven't inventoried
them yet (this afternoon's task). Obviously I need to find out
exactly what it's populated with, and look for a user's guide and
technical manual on bitsavers.
Keeping in mind that I know nothing about this machine yet, what
should I do as a "quick start"? I have powered it up and the fans
and power-ok lights come on, so that's a good beginning.
Charles, please try to avoid powering up machines you got if you don't
know their (working) condition.
Contacts or loosen screws can fly through the BA-box in case of your 11/24
during transport and can provoke short circuits while powering up.
Always inspect your machine carefully, watch out for loosen parts and check
the configuration of your system BEFORE aplying power to it.
Otherwise, parts can be damaged even without your knowledge. Parts, you'll have
difficulties to find replacements for later on.
Regards,
Pierre
