Hi,
the BlinkenBone project made much progress last months.
("BlinkenBone" is this "connect physical and simulated panels to SimH"
thing).
New features:
- a PDP-8/I front panel Java simulation.

Thanks Don. I did read that thread previously but I will do so again in case I
missed a finer point in it.

Folks,
We're refitting the last unrefitted office here and there's a full bookcase
of grey heading for the skip unless anyone wants to take them away? Must
admit in the 12 years I've worked here I didn't realise there was a shelf
of RSTS manuals!
Deadline is late next week so thurs/fri 17/18th.

They're in a sales office and I forgot about them when you visited otherwise
you could've taken them. I'm guessing at the versions but it'll probably be

I know nothing about RSTS and RSX, how many shelf-feet are we talking? A
handful of DECdirect would be nice too. Not sure what SOC refers to though?

I had a little time after lunch to try the below procedure and using the beta
version of SIMH I am able to create a tape image that's bootable by SIMH
without the below error.
I copied the following to the image, which I will try with TU58em when I get

Rich,
If you need to disable the LTC interrupt, it's a jumper wire located on the top
(solder side) of the power supply. It originally came as two single pin socket
type things with a wire jumper-ed between them. When I previously asked
whether it had two or three switches on the front, later

RSTS V4 is 2 or 3 manuals (two binders); eventually it grew to be maybe 10 or
so.
Gary -- that must be what the other switch is for. I haven't yet unmounted the
PS board to see what the switch was connected to, only having recently gotten
the schematic. I'll make sure the switch is off (I think it may be on).
The schematic has an unlabeled jumper "J" which is shown connecte

If we can arrange for the manuals to be saved I am happy to scan them in
and make them available to bitsavers. After that I am happy for them to go
to whoever wants the paper copies. Maybe at the next DEC Legacy (which it
looks like will be some time in October now)!

Hi Guys
A shipment of PDP-8/e (A and B) panels went out to-day.
Tracking numbers will be sent to customers on Monday
Next up 8/f and 8/m.
New orders for PDP-8/e (A and B) , 8/f and 8/m will be accepted when
we have free stock.

If you are happy to scan them (non-destructively) then that would be great! If
it is not too many shelf-feet then I would be interested in keeping at least
some of them, I can always give them to Jim Austin if they are too much.

Non-destructively scanning DECdirect catalogues or SOCs would be very

Well, I have the scanner and the time, I am going to put in online anyways.
It may not be the full source, but perhaps it will come in handy for
