> Using a DW11-B to connect the MINC to a PDP-11/45 sounds fantastic!
Believe-it-or-not I did it becuase I didn't have an RL11. I used the RLV11 in the MINC to interface to the RL01s. Yes, that does work. > What a neat idea! I have all the MINC modules except the MNCTP > thermocouple interface and the MNCAM analog mux. With the modified I think the MNCAM is the only one I am missing. I have : MNCAD (ADC), MNCAA (DAC), MNCAG (preamplifier, MNCTP (Thermocouple amplifier), MNCDI (Digital Input), MNCDO (Digital Output) and MNCKW (Clock). Are there others? > BDV11 I've been able to boot 11/03, 11/23 and 11/73 CPUs. I run either > RT-11 and RSX11M by changing MicroSD cards on the UC07 / SCSI2SD > drives (configured as 4 150 MB drives).

The backplane looks odd, but it's just Qbus with CD interconnect. I can't remember if there is CD interconnect between the logic cards (in the right hand compartment with the silly notice on top [1]) and the MINC modules, but there is certainly CD interconnect between the logic boards (the RLV11 needs it for one thing) and between the MINC modules (that's how the clock gets to trigger the ADC and how the mux and preamplifiers feed the ADC). The rear 2 connectors of each MINC module are normal Qbus AFAIK. I've never seen RSX drivers for the MINC modules. There was a set of RT11 libraries, etc. -tony
