This VAX came with for documentation the field service drawings, and that was it (no installation manual or anything else specific to a 730). The 730 refuses to boot; in fact, all it displays on the console is a CONV011 code. Now, from a book that I've scrounged up, it says the 730 will print 'CONSOLE', and then place you at the >>> prompt. If the system does not print out 'CONSOLE', it means one of the self tests failed. The book had no other help concerning what the error could be. If some could help us with this, we would be very grateful..
