THe UNIX VAX has one DH/DM and the VMS system has two. All of the DH's have hung on several occasions with all terminals dead and nothing will get them to come back to life. Able says that the silo delayed interrupt option (S4, 3) can cause this but I have my doubts. Has anyone else run into this? ANyone with a cure? It can't hurt to change this DIP switch to closed since the UNIX dh driver configures silo interrupts to behave in the same manner that the option selects if S4-3 is closed. Closing this switch is also supposed to prevent extra chars from popping up. We haven't noticed this under UNIX but the VMS DH's have this happen 3-4 times an hour. ANyone know more about this than I do? I'd like to hear from you if you do... Our boards are rev E4.
