This manual provides comprehensive installation and configuration information for the MS11-E through MS11-J MOS memory series, designed for use with the PDP-11 Unibus. Key sections include:
- Introduction: Explains the advantages of MOS memory over core memory, covering storage capacities (4K to 16K words), refresh requirements for the capacitor-based storage elements, and power characteristics.
- System Specifications: Details of access times, cycle times, power consumption, and current requirements for different MS11 variants.
- Installation: Step-by-step guidance for jumper configuration based on memory size, address assignment via DIP switches, voltage checks, and backplane installation procedures.
- Switch Settings: Extensive appendices providing the specific switch configurations required for different address ranges and I/O page assignments.
