Re: [Simh] Problem using a real VT terminal with simh

Have you configured the centos serial port to anything? It may be the problem. Sent from my Galaxy Tab® A Original message From: Peter Allan Date: 12/5/17 10:56 AM (GMT-07:00) To: simh@trailing-edge.com Subject: [Simh] Problem using a real VT terminal

Re: [Simh] Problem using a real VT terminal with simh

I'd suspect  a problem with the 8th bit being handled funny , maybe mark parity Are the characters in the right pattern to be vms prompts, and are they always the same?  If you can log  into linux fine on that terminal, telnet from there Into the emulator and see what happens. You can telnet in

Re: [Simh] [OFFTOPIC] LAT license for Lantronix ETS8P terminal server

Hello Ruzsi. I use a Lantronix ETS8PS terminal server on my local network because it's useful for LAT, Telnet to LAT gateway, and giving access to my real VAX and Alpha consoles (which I define as LAT services). If you search the strings in the ETSP.SYS firmware image file for "LAT license" you

Re: [Simh] Problem using a real VT terminal with simh

Hi Peter, Even if you do solve the problem by some different combination of things, the problem you’re seeing is real and possibly generic, so understanding the differences between when it failed and when it worked may lead to a different approach which works more universally. So, please

Re: [Simh] Problem using a real VT terminal with simh

Thanks to everyone for their quick responses. To my surprise, Xon/Xoff was turned off on the VAX, specifically, SHOW TERM TTA0 showed No HostSync. However SET TERM/PERM/HOSTSYNC TTA0 made no difference. I have tried setting the line speed to 2400, but that only slows down the output. It still

Re: [Simh] Problem using a real VT terminal with simh

Another thing to check is transmit and receive speed on the terminal so that they aren't different. Many people today fail to realize that they can be different and that dec terminals have different settings for the two. The "best" might be to set receive speed equal to transmit speed, which

[Simh] Problem using a real VT terminal with simh

Several years ago I wanted to hookup and old VT320 that I have and I did manage to get it to work but I did not go with the direct serial I/O connection in SiMH. Instead I found a program called TCPToSer that established a TCP/IP connection from the serial port. It worked fine with a USB to

[Simh] [OFFTOPIC] LAT license for Lantronix ETS8P terminal server

Hi, I know it is just a soft connection to SimH but I hope there are some VMS expert here and maybe someone is using/used Lantronix old terminal server(s). Its type is ETS8P. This term. server supports LAT protocol but needs a license string. I wrote to Lantronix support and I got the answer

Re: [Simh] EXT : Problem using a real VT terminal with simh

It sounds like the serial port is trying to autobaud to determine the transmission speed. I would set the port forcibly to 9600 8N1 before connecting. SIMH does not set the baud on the real physical port AFAIK, it just interprets the characters 7b/8b. Dave From: Simh

Re: [Simh] Problem using a real VT terminal with simh

Do you have flow control (Xon/Xoff) enabled both on the terminal and on the VAX? You might try a slower speed to see if that makes a difference. It shouldn't, but it might give more information. Is autobaud enabled on the line? You might turn that off and set the speed and related parameters
