[Simh] EXT :Re: TU58 device for PDP-11s

Fri Jun 26 14:07:18 EDT 2015

At least all the smaller ones, e.g. 11/03, 11/23; I don't know exactly about the small old UNIBUS ones which probably used TU56s back then. All TU58 were connected and controlled via normal serial line controllers, which was one fact that made them so cheap.

P.S.
There is already code for the TU58 in the VAX730 and VAX750 simulators, where the TU58 acts as console device. Maybe some or more of it is usable for the PDP-11, too?

What PDP-11 used TU58’s, and what controller did the drive connect to?

Am I right that there is currently no TU58 device available for the PDP-11 series of computers?

If so, would someone be so kind as to implement it?

Thanks in advance to all programmers who ponder on evetually doing it!

Regards,

Ulli

 I don't know about simh, but there are several simulators out there. There is something for linux too. But it sounds like a worthy cause.
