- This isn't the North sea gas terminal control system by any chance?? I'll put
- money on it being the ICS/ICR as the problem. Are you running M or M-PLUS BTW?
- Have all ICS/ICR and DT07 backplanes had the DD-11 ECO for the UDA-50 done?
- This killed the Gronigen system when it went in. Bet the deuna/cpu cause signal
- corruption and cross talk in the unibuss. If it IS an ICR, not an ICS, how long
- is the link cable between the unibus and the ICS unit?
