Hello,

Still trying to figure out what is wrong.  I got an Emulex QD22 from a guy at a recent VCF meeting, and am trying to resurrect my MicroVAX-II (KA630-AA).  I have a BA23 cabinet with a H9278-A backplane.

I have the KA630-AA in slot 1, and the QD21 in slot 2 - A and B connectors.  I don't have any grant continuity jumpers, but I don't think I should need any in this configuration.  I am trying to configure the QD21 by running the built-in diagnostic program in the QD21 EPROMS.  I have done the procedure dozens of times as described in the Emulex manual, but it doesn't work.  I am supposed to get an 0400 (hex) in the CSR, but instead I get 0200, and there is no code loaded at location 80.  I can't figure out what is wrong - bad QD21, bad backplane, typo in the manual's procedure or something else.

Any ideas on how to diagnose this are very welcome.  The going price on a QD21 seems to be over $200, which is getting a bit expensive.  Does anybody know where I can get one cheaper in the US?

Thanks,

Jon
