What's in there now are 2764 EPROMs; I just grabbed the 28C64 EEPROM variant. Pinout's the same and the parts I got are 5V-capable, so I assume there shouldn't be any problems...?
Lordy, that's counter-intuitive. I'll give it a try when I get home.
I had to cut one of the wire-wrap jumpers to get the console line up to 9600 baud for it to catch my Ctrl+Cs, but I was gonna do that anyway
Hmm. I kinda figured it meant that the baud rates could be selected in code (I'd have to reexamine the manual, though.) My MXV11 doesn't come with a console panel that includes a rate selector, anyway (though my KDF11 CPU does - not sure if it would affect anything.)
The MXV11-B was intended to be used with BC21B cables. The BA23 console connection board with the baud rate switch has its own baud rate clock on it and replaces the baud rate clock on a board it's plugged into. Studying the print set will reveal this.
The console connection is the left (components facing you, fingers down) connection on a MXV11-B. There are many jumpers that have to be set correctly. I studied the manual and determined the right jumpering. Trial and error will not work, there are too many jumpers.

The manual actually has a good flow chart for setting the jumpers. Of course, you have to understand what the things are. What does a BC21B cable look like ? I can't find a picture.
...I found this site, which lists speeds for the J-11 as 3.75 MHz and eventually up to 4.75 MHz. Is that correct? ...
