If you are not familiar with the BA23 or BA123 enclosures, make sure you aren’t plugging the controllers in the PMI slots. This would be 1-3 CD on the BA23 and 1-4 CD on the BA213. Things will be very unhappy if you accidentally do this. see http://decvax.50megs.com/doc/qbus/tutorial.html <http://decvax.50megs.com/doc/qbus/tutorial.html> Jerry
