The ts-11 operates only at 1600 bpi, and only one transport is possible per controller. .SH FILES .ta \w'/dev/MAKEDEV.local 'u /dev/MAKEDEV script to create special files .br /dev/MAKEDEV.local script to localize special files .DT .SH "SEE ALSO" mt(1), tar(1), tp(1), mtio(4), ht(4), tm(4), dtab(5), autoconfig(8) .SH DIAGNOSTICS \fBts%d: no write ring\fR. An attempt was made to write on the tape drive when no write ring was present; this message is written on the terminal of the user who tried to access the tape. .PP \fBts%d: not online\fR. An attempt was made to access the tape while it was offline; this message is written on the terminal of the user who tried to access the tape. .PP \fBts%d: hard error bn%d xs0=%b xs1=%b xs2=%b xs3=%b\fR. A hard error occurred on the tape at block \fIbn\fR; status registers 0-3 are printed in octal and symbolically decoded as bits. .PP \fBts%d: addr mod 4 != 0\fR. The address of a TS-11 command packet was not on an even longword boundary. .SH BUGS If any non-data error is encountered on non-raw tape, it refuses to do anything more until closed. .PP The device lives at the same address as a tm-11 .IR tm (4).
