and for horrible deep level maint. I would imagine they would be
useful....
they look like something too complex to let operations level people
diddle with...
but are these used with exactly WHICH Honeywell system? If we are
going to display them need to tell the right story in the museum.

The panels would be pretty much un-used Unlike 360 panels these were
hidden behind doors for most of the time. Assuming the work the same on a
Multics box as on a regular L66/DPS box the only time they were really used was
if you split a 2 x CPU system into 2 x 1 CPU system, or changed the memory
configuration from interleaved to non-interleaved. Pretty sure you could IPL
from the console.
