    9600, 8-none-1 should do it for you.

    The MicroVAX Console is not real helpful for finding out stuff about the
    machine unless you can find a console command reference. "SHOW DEV"
    should display all the devices that the console can "see", but may not
    be as descriptive as you might like.
