&INFO
PDP-8 FIELD SERVICE DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM . . . Ver. 5
- released Jan 1980 by New England District Support -
- For Diagnostic names, type ".HELP DEVICE", where "Device" is the option
you want to reference, ie: try ".HELP RK05" and see what happens.
For all the diagnostic names, type ".HELP DIAG"
- Several System Programs such as "DIRECT","BUILD","FUTIL", as well as
various utilities such as "RKUTIL" and "RKCOPY" have HELP files. To review
these, type "HELP [Prog name].
- Before trying to run the program "BUILD.SV", please read the HELP files !
This procedure is advised for knowledgable users only ... be sure that you
have ".SET SYS NO INIT" before using !
- For more information, type "HELP MORE"
&MORE
STILL MOORE INFO ON THE SYSTEM ...
- This is essentially an OS-8 system; all rules apply
- There are two (2) printer handlers available for either the LA/LP
