Hi DU mgr's
I have a AlphaStation 600 Workstation (PCI) with a irritating problem
I hardly can get into Monitor SRM mode with the halt button
This system has both a Reset and a Halt button, and according to the docs
The halt mode should be visible on a LED. The LED goes on pushing the Halt
button, but it just resets the machine and reboots, just as the reset button does.
Sometimes after a reset I can hold on Control-C and interrupting the boot
initialization, but not always.
How can I enable the HALT button funcion properly
Is this normal on 600 ?
Should I let it repair by DEC or is it an unknown
monitor variable ?
I don't think I want/need to enable auto-action = halt , Do I ?
