The 11/60 handbook doesn't have that kind of
designation. It's EB06498
Yeah, that's the processor handbook, which is the paperback-sized thing which
is mostly a programmer's reference; I've got that, its the 8-1/2x11 sized
things I'm after.

Is it by any chance EK-KD11K-TM-001?
That part number is for a print-set
Uhh, no. Looking at the fiche version, EP-KD11K-TM-001, it has lots and lots
of text blocks (which I can't read without a fiche reader, of course).
We do seem to have the print sets:
MP00166 11/60 System (chassis, power contoller, etc)
MP00409 KD11-K CPU
MP00500 WCS (M7870)
MP00429 FP11-E
but I'm not desperate enough to learn the -11/60 by looking at them!
I'm following the discussion because I have the
two BA11 cabinets for
an 11/60, the PSUs, and the front panel (I'm missing the rack).
And by 'the rack', I'm guessing that includes the backplane? Looking through
the prints, I think I didn't see details on it (alas).

my recollection of the JO KD11-K is dusty. It was under development at
the same time my group was working on the DMC/KMC11 products.
The similarity of the /60 and the DMC/KMC was the fact that they were
both based on Harvard architecture implementations.

A Harvard arch implementation of the PDP11 ISP is an interesting challenge.

Ah... I've seen Tech Manuals printed as 2-up on C-sized paper,
sometimes with interstitial 11"x17" drawings that would have been
fold-outs in 8.5"x11" format.
No... "the rack" is just the outer box with rails (not an H960 -
whatever the designation is for the odd 11/60 cabinet). The
backplanes are in the BA11s.
I seem to have both MOS and core memory and, I am fairly sure, an
RK611, along with the CPU. I need to take a module inventory.

Totally fair.
