How to start WAITS
FIND A WIZARD:
1. Before you fix anything yourself, you should try to find a wizard.
Try paging, or if necessary call one at home.
Phone numbers:
BH (55) 751-1762
JBR (9) 494-3597
ME (9) 329-9081
MRC (9) 941-1096
TED (9) 494-3737 (hardware)
2. If that fails, you'll have to fix it yourself. Make a note in the
log with the date and time of the failure, and sign it.
**********************************************************************
CONTINUING THE SYSTEM:
1. Most crashes will print a message followed by:
FIND A WIZARD OR TYPE "CPOPJ$G". $ MEANS ESC. YOU'RE IN DDT.
If it prints this, try typing CPOPJ<escape>G and a couple of returns.
If you get monitor dots, you're winning. Type "BEEP" and return to
tell everybody the good news, and record what the message was in the
log.
2. If after you type CPOPJ$G the same thing happens, try CPOPJ$G
again. If it repeatedly happens, you'll have to reload.
3. If no message was printed, or some message which doesn't look like
the example in step one, you will have to reload. Try to find a
wizard.
**********************************************************************
RELOADING:
1. If there has been a power failure, go to 100.
2. If a message such as "KL10 Halted ..." appears followed by ">." at
the left margin go to step 4. The important part is that ">." should
appear to signify that KLDCP is listening.
3. Type āX (ie, control-X). The response should be "KLDCP" and a
CRLF and a period. You may sometimes have to wait a few seconds for
this response. If you don't get a period or ">." at the left margin,
go to 100.
4. Type "DS" and return. If you get the response "DSKDMP" go to step
5. If you don't get "DSKDMP" as a response to DS, then if the KA10 is
running, stop it and repeat this step. If you get "DEPOSIT/EXAMINE
ERROR IN DS" then perform step 102 and repeat step 4. If the KA10 is
stopped and DS doesn't get you "DSKDMP", go to 100.
5. Type "WAITS" and return to DSKDMP. If the system reloads and
starts you are winning. Otherwise, if the KA10 is running, stop it
and repeat steps 4 and 5. If the KA10 is stopped and DSKDMP still
doesn't work, you need help.
**********************************************************************
Don't come here unless directed by the steps above.
100. If the PDP-11 is running and you are talking to KLDCP, go to
step 101. Make sure a DECtape labeled "KL10 bootstrap" is mounted on
a PDP-11 DECtape drive that is selected to unit 0 and is enabled for
"remote" (ie, computer) operation. Press "LOAD DECTAPE" [located
above and to the left of the red "Emergency Power Off" button] and
hold it for at least a slow count to one. The DECtape should spin and
eventually something like "TCDP monitor" should be typed. Type in
"KLDCP" and return. KLDCP should load and type a message - go to step
101. If you don't get to TCDP you might try pressing the LOAD DECTAPE
button again. If you get to TCDP and the "KLDCP" command doesn't
work, call for help.
101. If there's been a power failure you will have to reload the
KL10's microcode. Type "DT0 LR SU" to KLDCP and return. If any error
messages are printed, you need help.
102. [Only if there's been a power failure or in other exceptional
circumstances] After loading the microcode, you must configure the
memory adapter by typing "I X4" and return.
103. If the command DS gives the message "DSKDMP BOOT NOT LOADED, LD
COMMAND", then load DSKDMP boot into the PDP-11 by "LD BOOT" and
return.
104. You should now be able to perform steps 4 and 5, but if that
doesn't work, you need help.
