Description
The MicroVAX 2000 and MicroVAX 3100 system modules both have connectors
that allow for the installation of a single option module. For exam‐
ple, the DHT32 is an option module (see The ULTRIX software includes
drivers for the DHT32 and other supported options.
The driver is a set of routines that provides the linkages necessary to
add a user-written device driver to the ULTRIX operating system. The
files listed in the Files Section contain comments about interfacing a
new driver to the ULTRIX operating system kernel.
Restrictions
The driver is not a guide to writing device drivers.
This driver can only be used with the MicroVAX 2000, MicroVAX 3100,
VAXstation 2000, and the VAXstation 3100 systems. The usefulness of the
driver on the VAXstation 2000 and VAXstation 3100 is further limited by
option hardware mounting constraints on those systems.
