RD53 formatter

I have a PDP-11/83 with an RQDX3 disk controller and a pair of RD53
drives from a MicroVAX II. Since all I can get from both drives are I/O
errors, I am left to assume that they were once hooked to an RQDX2
controller and now need to be re-low-level formatted to work with the
RQDX3. Does anyone know what is required to do this on an 11/83? Was
there an XXDP diagnostic program that did this?

Thanks.
