_ K-RM-11730 Rev A, (VAX 11/730) Revision Control Document, Jun 1990
VAX 11/730 REVISION CONTROL DOCUMENT
------------------------------------
The purpose of this document is to: (1) define the 11/730 revision
control process, (2) document the revision history, and (3) to
identify the compatible hardware, software, diagnostics and firmware
revisions of the VAX 11/730 to assist the field service engineer in
maintaining these systems.
There are two variations of the 11/730 system - 11/730 RL02/R80
based systems (Package Systems 1 and 2), and the 730XA UDA50 based
systems.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
This revision control document will be distributed through various
channels of field service communications, i.e. Speed Bulletin, VAX
Fiche Library and made available upon request, through CSSE. It can
also be copied via the EnetIt on VOLKS::CLUSTER$REV:730REV.DOC. It
will be updated when major changes in revision levels occur. This should
serve as a reference tool in determining the correct/revisions
required to maintain the high level of service provided by F/S. This
document will be replaced by Revision Matrix (RM) documents at some
time in the future. (See Section 2)
Phase I revision control on the 11/730 will be implemented in a manner
similar to the current VAX products (11/780 and 11/750) today, which
is a plan to upgrade all F/S supported machines to the latest revision
- as defined in the REVCMP document. Although, due to the projected
high volume of 11/730 shipments, along with the high cost of
up-grading field machines, this process will be assessed at a later
date, and may be modified to allow for F/S support of multiple levels
of machines.
2.0 REVISION MATRIX
Revision Matrix (DEC Standard 068) will be implemented for all 11/730
variations. Revision Matrix documents track revision history and
compatibility of units and combination of units. RM documents will be
under ECO control, so that every time there is an ECO to a part, that
changes the revision of that part, the documents will be updated. RM
documents for the 11/730 systems will track revision information as
outlined in the following matrix.

This matrix should be used for compatibility purposes only; all items
listed do not necessarily affect the revision of the 11/730 system.
Distribution of the Revision Matrix documents to the field is still in
question at this time; at a minimum, they will be available on
microfiche. Until they are available, Revcon information will be
distributed via this document.
2.1 SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION
Supporting documentation for the 11/730 variations should be available
in the VAX LIBRARY through your local fiche librarian.
2.2 KERNEL AND OPTIONS DESCRIPTIONS
The 11/730 Kernel (as defined below), microcode and options (listed
below), will all have a separate revision level and history, to be

3.0 REVISION CRITERIA
Any changes to the hardware, that affects performance or operation of
the system that is detectable by the diagnostics and operating system
software can change an option (unit) revision level - i.e. a
functional change. Modifications to cables, power subsystems,
ventilation equipment, or mechanical design should not cause a change
to the unit revision level.
Only a functional change to the kernel (11730-Z/11730-A) affects the
revision of the 11/730 system. The remaining options listed on the
revision chart in section 1.1 are tracked for compatibility purposes.
Today, modules can be marked in one of three ways: CS (Circuit
Schematic) Revision, Module Revision or Part Revision. DEC Standard
012 institutes Part Revision and is being implemented, as ECOs occur,
on all existing VAX products. All new VAX products will use Part
Revision. Part Revision always consists of a letter and a number,
i.e. A1 or A2. The letter is increased for a functional change; the
number is incremented for a non-functional change.
The revision is noted on each module by either a brady marker or a red
stamp on the end of the module handle. If both are present, the brady
marker should represent the latest revision. (It is wise to do a
quick check, if possible, to insure that this is correct!)
Compatible revisions for each part (unit) are separated by commas;
also, revisions separated by a dash, i.e. A1-C2, mean that those
revisions, plus whatever is in between, are compatible. Any special
requirements (specific revisions for certain configurations, etc.)
will be noted in the revision summary section. Revisions noted are
all minimum revisions.
A revision label will be installed on the 11/730 cabinet which will
contain the revision of the major options (units) residing in the CPU.
This label will be marked in manufacturing before the 11/730 is
shipped and should only be updated by the field service technician
when instructed to do so - usually as part of an FCO.
3.1 VAX 11/730 SYSTEM IDENTIFICATION REGISTER (SID)
The 11/730 system identification register is a read-only constant
register that specifies the processor type and the microcode revision,
and is a soft register residing in the microcode. The entire SID
register is included in the error log. The type field may be used by
software to distinguish processor specific field.

on ECO M8396-TW005.
This new revision fixes microcode problems.
Mfg. will begin shipping this sometime in Jan. 1983. Field
implementations will begin in May 1983, and will be coordinated
with the 11/730 and RB730 FCO's.
* QUICK CHECK
Unit revision label (DMF32) should read 01.
M8396-E - check that E102 is a 23-039K4-00
(Fixes microcode problems)
-F - check that R18, R20 are P/N 13-21476-01,
and a wire add on side 2 from J3 pin "A" to bottom
of C9
(Fixes problem with 9636 drivers oscillating.)
* VAX/VMS
VAX/VMS version 3.1 - this is backwards compatible to 3.0.
* MICROCODE
DMF32 revision 01 microcode revision - 4K23.

6.4 DMF32 - 02 REVISION SUMMARY
Represents DMF32-S-0002 FCO, and consists of ECO 5414459-MK002 and
M8396-TW007. FCO availability is March 1984.
This revision fixes noise problems with the 11/730 and 11/750 systems.
(Note that 11/730 grounding FCOs should be installed in conjunction
with the DMF FCO: FCO 11730Z-S-0002 and FCO BA11Z-S-0001. Projected
availability is March 1984.)
Note that ECO 5414459-MK002 was implemented in manufacturing in October
1983; M8396-TW007 will be implemented by March 1984, so many DMFs will
have one ECO and not the other. Both are needed to have a Rev 2 DMF.
* Quick Check
Unit revision label (DMF32) should read 02.
M8396-H1 - E33,E34,E43,E44 are 9639
(Fixes noise problems on 11750 and 11730.)
5414459-C1 - Wire from J2-J to J2-M
(Grounds distribution panel.)
* VAX/VMS
VAX multiport driver patch needed along with hardware FCO. Patch
will be officially released in VMS 3.6; until then, local software
specialists should be contacted for copies of the patch prior to
installation of this FCO.
* Microcode
Current version is 4K23.

6.5 DMF32 - 03 REVISION SUMMARY
Represents FCO DMF32-S-0003 and consists of ECO M8396-TW008. This
ECO consists of microcode corrections necessary to implement X.25
(SDLC/HDLC protocols). Also fixes LN01 problems - printer line
length not currently supported. Printer line length should not be
able to be set to zero (will hang DMF32 and system).
FCO implementation should only be to fix problem - i.e. X.25 systems
and LN01s. Availability of the FCO is February 1984. Expected
manufacturing implementation is March 1984.
* Quick Check
Unit revision label (DMF32) should read 03.
M8396-J1 - E141 is 23-028F5-00
(Microcode change for X.25)
M8396-K1 - E138 is 23-043F5-00
(Microcode rom change to fix parallel port
silo counter.)
M8396-L1 - Value Engineered DMF-32 (old etch "D")
ECO#M8396-MK010.
M8396-L2 - Value Engineered DMF-32 (new etch "E1")
ECO#M8396-MK010.
* Microcode
New microcode version is 4K27.
6.6 KC730 OPTION REVISION
The remote diagnosis option for the 11/730 is the KC730.
The KC730 hardware, that will be kept under revision control, are two
proms, that will reside (when used) on the WCS board (M8394), in chip
locations E50 and E52. The location number for each chip is
printed on the chip. The M8394 module must be at least a rev H
to support the KC730.

-----------------------------------------------------------
| 23-059F2 - R/D PROM || 23-059F2 || 23-82F2 ||
-----------------------------------------------------------
Since these are PROMs, they do not have any kind of hardware revision
level, and any revision changes in this option will result in either
one, or both, of the part numbers changing.
KC730 revision 01 corrects a number of problems encounted when running
RD.

Rev 57 fixes the following microcode problems:
1. Enables reporting of single bit memory errors to system error logger.
2. Fixes VMS herald hang on UDA based systems (See section
5.3.1 for further details.)
Rev 57 was automatically distributed in March to anyone on the VAX
Diagnostic Distribution list. The console tape could also be ordered
directly from SDC.
7.2 Microcode Revision 58
- 18 -
Rev 58 fixes the following microcode problems:
1. Bug in ADDPx, SUBPx (x=4,6) instructions not setting the
V bit correctly.
2. Bug with ASHP instruction not always putting correct data
in upper nibble of the first byte. This also caused incorrect
setting of the Z, V and N bits.
Rev 58 was automatically distributed in January, 1985 in diagnostic release
18 to anyone on the VAX Diagnostic Distribution list.
