I just got one of these. It powers up, the lights on
the back flicker
nicely, and it appears to be outputting crap to the MMJ serial port
labeled '3', but for the life of me I can't figure out what speed it's at.
I've tried minicom at 300,1200,2400,4800.9600.19200,38400, and 57600 with
no success. I've even tried 7-N-1 and 7-E-1 (7bits no/even parity and 1
stopbit) along with 8-n-1, no luck.
There should be a little slide switch at the back. When it is
up it will use that port (3 - with the printer icon) at
whatever speed: usually 9600 8-N.
I've never tried via a minicom - do you have a
dumb terminal, preferably a VT200/300/400
and a known good set of connectors and cables?

And what will it do when the
switch is down? Autoboot? I know that
switch from VAXstations to switch the machine from graphics to serial
console. But this machine has no graphics.
