<div text="#000000">OK - so I now have a serial terminal hooked
up to the 11/73, and when I power it up, I get the line<br>
<br>
173000<br>
<br>
and then the "@" prompt, which I assume means I'm in ODT.<br>
<br>
>From what I can read, 173000 should be the address in the ROM to fire up
the setup menu on the KDJ11-B board, but no matter what I'm entering at
the prompt I either get back question marks or it seems to jump around
to different memory addresses.<br>
<br>
so anything like <br>
<br>
@173000G <br>
<br>
or entering a "p" after the machine comes up don't get me anywhere.<br>
<br>
VT320 terminal is set to 9600 8N1, not sure if I need to do anything to
differentiate between CR and LF as I'm entering things.<br>
<br>
So - can you tell this obvious noob what I'm missing to get any further
on this guy?<br>

I have a Xyplex MaxServer that boots off a CF card and does LAT<br>and
