I have it working now.  I had to go into XP settings for the comm port. @L777 @E 000777 173200 165212 000777 So, next is to hook up to the RL02.  I will start a new thread for that. On 12/14/2017 7:23 AM, Noel Chiappa wrote: > From: William Degnan > 1) the console rom does not

Re: 11/04 Project

The "@" is on the screen in HyperTerminal. I have 4 M9312 cards.  Three have W8 jumped, one did not.  I put in the M9312 w/o W8 and when I power on I see the "@" on the screen. Now for the next snag. The bitsavers document suggests L777 ; E which should echo some digits.  However nothing

Re: 11/04 Project

I am confused by the flow of this thread on my phone but.there are important things to confirm 1) the console rom does not go in any of the 4 bootstrap slots, these should be empty for now. There is a special console rom slot. Please confirm you have it installed. 2) 164020 should bring up the @

I have bi-directional communication from PC/Hyperterminal.   I forgot about having to tell HyperTerminal to echo characters locally. Anyway, 'a' comes over as 000141 and 'A' comes over as 000101. So far so good. However, I have not gotten "@" CNTRL+HLT CLR LAD DEP CNTRL+INIT CNTRL+START ->

RE: 11/04 Project

Jumping over the settings. They seem OK, as you get the AB in Hyperterm. That 777564 shows 000200 is also correct (as I remember that): it indicates “transmit buffer empty”. You can also try it the other way: * type one character in Hyperterm * check that 777560 has the receiver buffer
