NAME

cs − RX50 console interface

DESCRIPTION

This is a simple interface to the RX50 disk unit, which is part of the console subsystem for the VAX 8200 (8200, 8300, 8500, 8550, 8700, 8800).  Access is given to the entire RX50 consisting of 80 cylinders of one track of 10 sectors of 512 bytes.  The RX50 sectors are accessed as logical 512-byte disk blocks. 

The seek addresses in raw transfers should be a multiple of 512 and a multiple of 512 bytes should be transferred, as in other ‘raw’  disk interfaces.
