Twinax might be the problem.... What is their status on WRKDEV ???

The cursor in the upper left does indicate that the device is at
least "talking" to the controller.

The block on the bottom left is a little strange, anything in the block
??

Any chance they were disabled by an invalid sign on attempt ???

Anybody at the remote site know how to bring up config screen ???

As a general rule those are VERY solid controllers unless the
diskette gets screwed up... I had a guy try to copy one on a pc
once for "backup"...Of course that destroyed the diskette.
