Hi...

now I cleaned the vaxstation II/GPX and I want to make it a runable system. I own no monitor but on the
powerconnectorside there are a lot of dsub connectors and switsches and a onedigitdisplay.
Can someone explain them and the

If I fire the vaxstation on the systemdisplay shows an A and then seemd to wait. Nothing goes on and no
harddisk is aktive. The light on the powerswistchside are in ready mode.

So bonnecting a serial cable to the CPU status connector diesn't work nd it seemd as I must make a
DEC-like cable for it.

Thanks for help.
