 The '''KY11-LB Programmer's Console''' was an option for the [[PDP-11/04]] and the [[PDP-11/34]] (the units for the two machines differed only in the number painted on the plastic insert). It provided the functionality of a conventional 'lights and switches' [[front panel]].
-It consisted of a front panel, and an M7859 [[DEC card form factor|quad]] card which plugged into any available [[Small Peripheral Controller|SPC]] slot in the same [[backplane]] as the [[Central Processing Unit|CPU]], and a 20-[[conductor]] [[flat cable]] which connected the two.

 To perform the basic functions of the console, it communicated with the PDP-11 CPU and with [[main memory]] over the [[UNIBUS]]; a pair of additional backplane lines (Halt Request, on [[pin]] CP1, and Halt Grant, on CR1) communicate with the CPU, to request that the main CPU [[halt]], and for the CPU to acknowledge that it has honoured that request.

+==Cable Connection Documentation Error==
 The KY11-LB maintenance manual contains a major error, in describing the configuration of the flat cable that connects the front panel and the UNIBUS interface module. This is covered in Chapter 9, "Installation", which includes two figures, Figures 9-4 and 9-5.
