COMMX

The COMMX program is a DH-11 communications multiplexer exersiser.  It
can be used to exercise either input or output to the R1000's RS-232C
lines.  To invoke the program type:

    CLI> x commx

The program will query for INPUT or OUTPUT testing.  Once you have answered
it proceed as follows:

    INPUT =>

    Any character coming into the DH-11 will be recognized and a
    message such as:

        Line n on unit m received ascii xx

    will be sent to the console as well as out the line from which
    the character was received.  Typing any character on the console
    will terminate the test.

    OUTPUT =>

    A character string like:

        This is line n on unit m

    will be sent to all DH-11 lines.  Typing any character on
    the console will terminate the test.
