The PDP-11/60 Microprogramming Tools Reference Manual

This manual provides detailed instructions for using the microprogramming tools designed for the PDP-11/60 Writable Control Store option. It is divided into five parts:

• Part I: Introduction to the microprogramming tools, including syntax notation and general documentation conventions.
• Part II: Describes the MICRO-11/60 assembler, which converts source microprograms into absolute object code.
• Part III: Covers the Microprogram Loader (MLD), used to load the object module into the Writable Control Store.
• Part IV: Explains the Microprogram Debugging Tool (MDT), which allows programmers to set breakpoints, examine memory, and control program execution.
• Part V: Acts as a User's Guide for practical application of the assembler, loader, and debugger.

The manual also includes extensive appendices detailing predefinitions, dispatch file techniques, sample code, and error messages.
