The register becomes correct if I tap the RESET button on the VAX's front console, and the device becomes usable. Well then. . .is there anything I can do in the way of programming to cause those things to happen that happen when the RESET button is pressed? (Alas, the PDP-11's "reset" instruction has disappeared from the VAX's vast collection.) If you know, please reply to me by mail. -- VAX is a Digital Equipment Corporation trademark. -- UUCP: ..decvax!seismo!elsie!ado ARPA: elsie!ado@seismo.ARPA DEC, VAX and Elsie are Digital Equipment and Borden trademarks Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
