sounds interesting. But could it not be an interface which acts

I think CX11 was used when you wanted to hang a PDP-11 off a mainframe
channel, rather than have a PDP-11 control anything IBMy.
Somewhere around here I have a similar device that hangs a PDP-11 off
a CDC Cyber channel. The PDP-11 (a /24, I think) was basically used as
a plotter controller.
Innnnnteresting.
Are there any docs for the CX11 around? A cursory glance at
bitsavers didn't turn up anything.
