KL10 CONSOLE INSTRUCTIONS
Conventions:î____________
Commands end with carriage return. DELETE deletes the last character
typed; deleted characters are echoed between backslashes. CTRL/U
deletes the line being typed.
Numbers are octal. 36-bit numbers may be typed as two half-words
separated by a space. Negative numbers may be entered; thus -1 means
36 1-bits. In the following, <foo> is a symbol; don't type the angle
brackets.
To examine and deposit memory:î______________________________
"EM <address>" types out the contents of the addressed location. If
<address> is omitted, the last address used is used again. "EN"
examines the last address used plus one. "EM <first> , <last>"
examines the <first> address through the <last> address, inclusive.
Don't put spaces around the comma.
"DM <address> : <contents>" deposits into memory. You can omit the
<address>, but not the colon, to re-use the last address used.
Putting R and a space in front of a command repeats it, with
typeout turned off, until you hit CTRL/C.
The Switches:î_____________
The left-most 16 switches are on the pdp11 panel. Numbers have been
affixed to indicate the pdp10 bit numbers. The remaining switches are
set by the "SW <octal value>" command. "SW" alone types out the
current setting of the switches.
Running Diagnostics:î____________________
Load the DEC microcode with the "P U.RAM" command. Type "SM" to start
the microcode. To run DG series diagnostics, which run in the pdp11,
type e.g. "P DGKAB.A11", then "SED". To run other diagnostics, which
run in the pdp10, type "P SUBRTN", then "P DDMMG" (for instance), then
"STD" to start it.
Stopping a Running Program:î___________________________
Hit BREAK, then CTRL/C. If the running program is in the pdp10, the
"SP" command is needed to stop it.
Powering the machine back on:î_____________________________
Check for boxes with no lights on; their circuit breakers may have
tripped. Hit the DISK button to reload KLDCP. If it doesn't reload,
disk unit 0 may need to be powered on and off. Type "RP0" to select
disk unit 0. Do "J KLINIT". This loads the ITS microcode and
configures memory and cache. If you get a bunch of "ADR=xxx COR=yyy
ACT=000" messages, some memory is hung. Try resetting it. (RESET
switch is at bottom right inside front door of each memory.)
Standard Tests:î_______________
"J KLDIAG" runs a series of diagnostics to check out the processor.
Switch 0 is raised to stop each diagnostic (at the end of the current
pass) and run the next. If it says "please load u code ver 73" do "P
MBOX.RAM" then "HC". The "E bus diagnostic enable switch" is a toggle
inside the front door of the left-most bay, near the "DTE SWITCH
PANEL" decal.
To run memory tests, "P U.RAM", "SM", "PE0", "P SUBRTN", "P DDMMG",
"STD". Or, "P DGKBB.A11", "SED".
Other Commands:î_______________
"MR" does a master reset of the machine.
"SM" starts the microcode. Try this if you get "? UCODE HUNG",
"? EM ERR", etc.
"J NTSDDT" loads in an exec DDT from disk.
A complete list of KLDCP commands is in an 8 1/2 x 11 printout
labelled "KLDCP OPR" around somewhere in the machine room.
