[Simh] Release of PDP10 KA/KI and PDP6 simulators.
I am pleased to announce a new set of simulators for the PDP10 series of computers by DEC. The simulators currently run the PDP6, KA10 and KI10. I will be adding the KL10 later. The KA10 and KI10 simulators will run Tops 10 up to version 6.03. KA10 will run ITS and includes support for many of the custom devices and networking. The KA10 also will run various versions of WAITS (including those that use the BBN pager). The PDP10 simulators support: Disk * RC10 RD10/RM10 * RP10 RP01/RP02/RP03 * RH10 RP04/RP06/RP07 (RP07 not supported under 6.03). * RH10 RS04 * PMP (P. PETIT'S IBM CHANNEL) Tape * TM10A or B * RH10 TM03/TU16 * TD10 Dectape Paper Tape * Punch * Reader DC10E terminal mux. Morton tty Mux for ITS. Knight Kludge mux for ITS. IMP networking support for ITS and WAITS. CH10 networking support for ITS. 340 Display Station support. The PDP6 simulator supports. * 270 Disk * 561 Magnetic tape. * 551 Dectape. * 340 Display station. * 630 terminal mux. I would like to thank Bob Supnik, Lars Brinkhoff, Mark Pizzolato, pascalgp, Bruce Baumgart, Angelo Papenhoff, Bryan Jenson, Cory Smelosky, Phile Budne, R. Voorhorst, Rich Alderson, Stephen Jones, Al Kossow, and The Living Computerr Museum. All these helped in various ways to get these simulators working. Either via testing, contributing devices, or providing documentation or software. Software kits for Tops 10 5.03 and 6.03 can be found at: http://sky-visions.com/dec ITS can be found at: https://github.com/PDP-10/its As more software becomes available I will place them on my web site. Tops 10 5.07 and Tops 10 4.5/4.72 are in the works. Possibly a Tenex system can be built.

Great job, Rich, and congratulations. Maybe we'll have 4S72 (or whatever it was called), the first version of TOPS-10 I ever used... /Bob On 7/10/2019 12:00 PM, simh-requ...@trailing-edge.com wrote: Message: 2 Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2019 07:29:14 -0400 From: Richard Cornwell To:simh@trailing-edge.com Subject: [Simh] Release of PDP10 KA/KI and PDP6 simulators.

Also, will the planned KL emulation > support the bits needed to run TOPS-20? WAITS works. At least the KA10 versions. Both with and without the BBN pager. I have trouble booting some of the very earliest monitors. I am working with Bruce Baumgart to get a couple disk images up for people to play with. At the moment is it kind of complicated to prepare a disk image. The KA should be able to run Tenex if we can find a system or generate one. For the KL10, yes it will support Tops20 paging.

This is exciting news! I’ll update my DEC emulation website as soon as I can. My thanks to all involved for their efforts. I’m particularly interested in the possibility of running WAITS.

So next is adapting the KI10 BlinkenBone ... no excuse anymore. kind regards, Joerg ___ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
