Yup. (And BTW the baud's not jumpers, it's the dials.)

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'.

You mean for the console, right? (All DL11's are 'simple serial terminal
interfaces' ;-).

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'.
