On a TOPS-10 system front ends include ANF-10 nodes (ie; DN87S) for terminals: serial lines (other than the console and KLINK) weren't put on the Console Front End of a 1090, and would be undesirable in an SMP (1099) configuration. Tho ISTR TOPS-10 might have supported additional terminals on the CFE on a 1091 (a blue 2060)? There was also the DL10 which I think *WAS* a memory mapper (for up to four 11's) used on KA and KI systems (someone is working on SIMH mods for these), and my list of PDP-10 peripherals: http://www.ultimate.com/phil/pdp10/10periphs includes one non 11/40 or 11/34 system: DC75 sync (PDP-11/15 & DS11's via DL10) DN8x code base! (cf DAS85?) And one where I have no spec for the '11: DAS78 IBM bisync support (up to 16 360, 370, and/or 2780's) (PDP-11 via DL10) FWIW, the chk11 in the ANF sources recognizes the following: KD11-D (11/04) KD11-B (11/05 or 11/10) KA11 (11/20) or KC11 (11/15) KD11-E (11/34) KD11-A (11/35 or 11/40) KB11-A (11/45) And for completeness, I also have these other PDP-10 devices: DA10 12/18-bit (PDP-8/9) computer interface DA28C PDP-8/11/12/15 interprocessor channel (for upto 16 processors) DA28A PDP-8/12 interface on DA28C DA28F PDP-11 interface on DA28C _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
