The standalone diagnostics (the counting lights) seem to work, although intermachine data transfer hasn't been tried yet. Also, Wern lengthened one of our power-control cables, and so power to Star Ring and the 05s is once again controlled by the 44 front-panel key instead of the little toggle switch on the power controller. As a minor side issue, the cables lying around on the floor behind the machines interfered sufficiently with lifting floor tiles that I got annoyed and cleaned them up. -- Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!henry
