Can anyone give me some help on the TSX-Plus timesharing
system which runs with RT-11?
Specifically, I am helping someone expand his system.
He now has a PDP-11/44 running RT-11 version 4.0
and TSX-Plus.
He wants to add another terminal.  He already has the
serial port hardware, he just needs to adjust the
software.
He presently has 2 DLV11-J 4-port serial boards.
4 ports are used for terminals, two are for the printers.
The other two are not being used.  He wants
to set one up for a modem (incoming).

So, the question is...
Does he hacve to re-do his RT-11 SYSGEN?
Or does he have to INSTALL another terminal handler?
Or does he just re-do TSGEN?

I ran the RESORC command and it says that RT-11 has no
multi-terminal support, but looking in the SYCND.MAC file
seems to indicate it was requested.  Does TSX totally
override what RT-11 set up?
As you can see, I don't know a lot about how this system
was set up (someone did it for them 3 years ago and
it hasn't changed since).
I read through the RT-11 SYSGEN manual and the TSX manual
and there are an awful lot of things they leave out, such as
EXACT definitions of some technical terms.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
