Yes, TOPS-10 on a 1091 did support FE devices. > 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: DL10 was indeed a memory window for 10/11s. 1 10 => 4 11s. 2 DL10s/CPU supported. From BOOT11:
he PDP-11 console panel has a "remote control cable" that plugs into the DL10. This cable enables the DL10 to toggle the PDP-11 HALT and START switches remotely, to examine the state of PDP-11 power, and to determine if the PDP-11 is running or is stopped. When the DL10 starts the PDP-11, the DL10 sends the starting address to the PDP-11 over the UNIBUS. The starting address (100002) is an area of -11 memory to which the DL10 responds and supplies data from DECsystem-10 memory cores. In effect, a PDP-11 program is started which executes out of DECsystem-10 memory. This PDP-11 program is part of BOOTH and has the major function of transferring data from the -10 to the -11 for loading and clearing operations, or from the -11 to the -10 for the dumping operation. BOOTH either supplies data to the -11 from the formatted binary input file, or takes the PDP-11 core image and writes an -11 dump file on some -10 device. > 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!
