CONTINUE can be abbreviated which will certainly work:
               sim> C

Why not run the latest code from https://github.com/simh/simh/archive/master.zip

There is no inpsmb. simh 3.9 doesn't accept the "continue" option.

Exactly. The only thing that simh adds to this process is the "set cr
reset" command to prompt the card reader (driver?).

So on simh, the flow control would be:

 1. get your "card deck" in a file on the host
 2. boot simh with the cr device attached to said file
 3. boot your VAX
 4. log in, then CTRL/E out to the simh prompt, and issue "set cr reset"
 5. issue "continue" to the simh prompt to resume the VAX
 6. observe that your job has run, and the file (if not deleted, which
    is the default) is now a DCL file in your default login directory,
    default name is "INPBATCH.COM". Name may be overridden by the /NAME
    qualifier on the job card.

OK here's what I tried. Issuing "continue" in simg doesn't work. simh> "continue" just gives an error.

./vax
lo -r ka655x.bin
set cpu 64m
set cpu idle=vms
set rq0 ra92
at rq0 vms
at nvr r
set cr autoeof
at -a cr list "name of licnese PAKs
set cr translation=029
b cpu
Then I use "b dua0" no problems
login as system and enter password. No problems

here I enter "set cr reset"
and at simh>
I enter "continue" and get an error. <shrug>
