John,
I have a real Industrial-11 console I could check with, if you can
set up a version of the picture with that console.

Easy: just run the program, use the Preferences menu item, select
Console, click on DataSystem 570, whoosh, the console window will
change.
BTW, someone with a real 570, or an Industrial-11, can make sure I
got those right. I have only (!) a "regular" one to measure against.

Due to overwhelming demand (OK, two people asked), here are some
quick screen shots from the program.
Traditional /70:

Industrial-11:
<http://dundas-mac.caltech.edu/~dundas/retro/simh/1170-2>
DataSystem 570:
<http://dundas-mac.caltech.edu/~dundas/retro/simh/1170-3>
So if you actually have one of the last two, feel free to suggest how
to improve the displays. BTW, the lamp test switch does work.

I'll check this against my 570 tonight.

My biggest
complaint is that on your display for the 570, the unlit
lights should *not* have a red tinge to them. They should be "black".
The red tinge is only present on the "traditional" red front panels.
