PDP-12 Lab Instructor's Outline

This document serves as an instructor's guide for a series of 16 laboratory sessions centered on the PDP-12 computer. The outline includes the duration for each lab and a breakdown of topics, which range from basic operations like loading RIM and Binary loaders to complex system troubleshooting, memory timing analysis, and peripheral adjustments (such as TU-55/56 tape drives, VR-12/14 displays, and AD-12 converters). Detailed job sheets and information sheets are provided for the first few labs, covering procedures such as binary loader operations, memory diagnostic execution, and processor cycle time charting. Several sections include troubleshooting flowcharts, technical parameters for adjustments, and failure directories for the instructor's use.
