Toggle-Ins

As DEC explains in its PDP-11/70 Maintenance Service Guide, Chapter 4: "There are several useful toggle-ins that are probably not very well known." Excerpts are listed below.

Memory Management

Use the following toggle-in to verify the correct operation of Memory Management Relocation.

200/012737          MOV #400,@#177572 (load maint. bit in MMRO)
202/000400
204/177572
206/012737          MOV #070707,@#200 (move 070707 to virtual 200)
210/070707
212/000200
214/000000          HLT

300/000300          Preset loc 300 to 300

17772300/077406     Set Kernel I PDR 0 to R/W 4K page
17772340/000001     Set Kernel I PAR 0 to (Base address 100)

Load Address 200
Start               Display = 000216 (Halt@214)
Load Address 300
Exam                Display = 070707 ... Relocation works

With the PDPjs Debugger, the above "toggle-in" is easily entered with these commands:

e 200 012737 000400 177572 012737 070707 000200 000000
e 300 000300
e 17772300 077406
e 17772340 000001
r pc 200
g

which should produce these results:

>> e 200 012737 000400 177572 012737 070707 000200 000000
