Does anyone have a M7800 (DL11) set for 9600 b
N71 or N81 jumper'd
with
the default address for use as a serial terminal
interface?
Yup. (And BTW the baud's not jumpers, it's the dials.)
You are correct, dials are in the 9600 b position for my crystal.
I understand the other jumpers on the card, but
the address and
vector
jumpers confuse me.
Join the crew... :-)
The simple rule on the DL11 is that vector jumpers are the inverse of
address
jumpers: for the vector, jumpers are 'in' for '1', and for the address,
they
are 'in' for '0'.
OMG
I think for use as a simple serial terminal
interface I need to
jumper
"in" *A9, A7, A5, A4, A3* ... correct?
Vector jumpers *V6, V7 "*in" .
You mean for the console, right? (All DL11's are 'simple serial terminal
interfaces' ;-).
Yes, so I can use a terminal with the machine, I need a working terminal.
The jumpers you give are for DL11 #1, address 776500,
vector 300. For
777560/60 (standard for the console), you want A7/A3 and V4/V5 'in'.
I think you mean 60/64, right?
