Message from user DECNET on BITXR1
DECnet event 4.7, circuit down, circuit fault From node 7.92 (BITXR1), 1-MAY-
2013 18:46:32.05
Circuit TX-1-7, Line synchronization lost
My setup is as follows:
7.92 (experimental machine):
sim> show vh
VH address=20000140-2000017F*, vector=2C8-2E4*, lines=32, 4 units
VH0 attached to

mode, 1 connection
VH1 DHV mode
VH2 DHV mode
VH3 DHV mode
BITXOO:
sim> show vh

mode, Modem
Hangup, 2 connections
sim>
BITXOO is running VMS 4.7, and it is a simulated 780. The other machine is
running 7.3 and it is a virtual 3900...
Anyone has been succesful setting this thing up?
Hmmm... I've tested this with DZ devices on windows hosts and not seen circuits
popping up and down...
I would work with the DZ device first. It has been tested and had its modem related
behaviors more solidly verified.
By the way, you shouldn't need to disable telnet as long as you have the telnet
setting the same on both ends of the connection (i.e. notelnet<->notelnet or
telnet<->telnet). The telnet setup we are using provides an 8 bit clean binary
telnet channel.
I would make sure that you've have MODEM and HANGUP settings enabled on both ends
(from the simh perspective).
What do you have for /MODEM and /HANGUP settings on the VMS ports?
If you can confirm good behavior on the DZ devices and bad on the VH we can explore
why...
