05.04 SYSTEM RESTART PROCEDURE

If for any reason the computer should loop or come to a complete stop during processing of a CT job, the following action should be taken:

  1. Enter the instruction STR (500000000000) in the Entry Keys
  2. Set to manual and press the Enter Instruction button
  3. Set to automatic and press the Start button

The above procedure will serve to get to the next job whenever the program in core which accomplishes this function has not been destroyed. When the above procedure results in another computer loop or stop, the action taken should be similar to the initial starting procedure:

  1. Rewind SYSLB1 (A1)

  2. Place sense switch 1 down

  3. Place a 'RESTART' deck in the on-line card reader of the form:

    $DATE          mmddyy
    $EXECUTE       CT
    

    If there were Basic Monitor Control Cards causing a temporary SYStem units change as part of the stacked jobs, the same cards should be placed between the $DATE and $EXECUTE cards to effect the same SYStem configuration as was in operation when the program malfunctioned.

  4. Clear and depress the Load Tape button.

The above procedure will cause the CT Processor to process the next job on SYSIN.
