OK from the beginning.
1. The 11/94 is housed in deep box located in a 42inch cabinet. It uses a
KDJ11-E Quad proc. board.
2. Two buses (Q and Uni) are housed in the one box and are linked by a
special interface card.
3. Via a pair of flat cables the CPU is linked to an I/O panel at the rear
of the cabinet.
As well as six nine way D (rs232) and one 25 way D (rs232) sockets
there is a set of dip switches to
set up the console serial line parameters. There is also a two digit
power on self test progress display.
4. On switch on the self test progress display and the LED's on the edge of
the CPU card count down
from 77 to 04 (normal run mode)
5. Dialog mode is entered as set by the dip switches on the I/O panel.
Sometimes it gives the List Boot etc.
Hitting any of the choices just drops you into set up mode. Setup does
work and you can save the changes.
6. The main problems are that if you try to get it to boot it says no
controller to every device except DD
and that says no drive. Secondly I cant get it to go into ODT to look at
the registers.
Comments please

1. The PROM appears to be genuine DEC. KDJ11-E Monitor V 1.06
2. I have seen it the mode where it offers List etc but only with VT100
It would appear that deviced on the Unibus is inaccessible. DD is run off the
KDJ11-E serial ports.
Have you checked the Unibus supply voltages? KDJ11-T properly seated?
Is there a good battery for the TOY clock inserted?
TOY battery did need a change. (got to go get one)
Would that have caused the problems?
