[HECnet] Slightly OT: DECTape support in SIMH VMS?

Clem Cole wrote: I thought vms may have supported the funky cartridge tape unit on the 750 console. That's a TU58 (I believe it was actually called "DECtape-II"). That's supported by pretty much all versions of VMS. The driver was removed from some of the recent versions, but it's easy to add back. The only special hardware (on the VAX side) required by the TU58 was a serial port, though. The traditional DECtape (those little reels of tape) was a different thing. Bob
