  The VAXstation 3100 self-test codes -- which map into the oldest of the
  MicroVAX 3100 series model codes, too -- are posted at Ask The Wizard
  topic (1228), and are attached below. These VAXstation 3100 series
  codes should map into (at least) the MicroVAX 3100 models 10, 10e, 20
  and 20e series.

:I know some, but need them all - we have lost our old MV3100 book. Any
:help would be greatly appreciated.

  Which model of MicroVAX 3100? (Beware differences and similarities
  across the names and models of MicroVAX 3100, VAXstation 3100 and
  VAXserver 3100 series -- don't assume that any of the names or models
  or codes are interchangeable. Some are fiendishly close, buth quite
  entirely different -- the DECstation 3100 series, for instance. It's
  usually best to post the full system name or the system model code,
  of course. From that, we can usually sort out the particular box.)

  If you have a specific (other) VAXstation or MicroVAX 3100 series
  model, do post it and I can check around for the specific codes.
  (Assuming somebody else doesn't have the self-test codes handy, too.)

  The VAXstation 3100 self-test codes indicate:

    F MONO monochrome video circuit
    E CLK time of year clock
    D NVR non-volatile RAM
    C DZ serial controller
    B MEM memory test
    A MM memory management
    9 FP floating point
    8 IT interval timer
    7 SCSI-A SCSI A bus (internal)
    6 SCSI-B SCSI B bus (external)
    5 SYS interrupt controller and Ethernet ID PROM
    4 8PLN 8-plane graphics controller
    3 not supported
    2 not supported
    1 NI Ethernet network circuits

  ? indicates a minor problem, one that will not interfere with normal
  system operation.

  ?? indicates a major problem, often affecting system operation.

  * indicates a device is present, but the ROM code was not executed.

  _ indicates a device or option that is not installed.
