NAME
     ts - TS11/TSV05 magtape interface

SYNOPSIS
     ts0 at uba? csr 0172520

DESCRIPTION
     The TS11/TSV05 combination provides a standard tape drive interface as
     described in mtio(4). The TS11 operates only at 1600 BPI, and only one
     transport is possible per controller.

     The TS11 is attached to an UNIBUS, and the TSV05 is attached to a Q22
     bus.

DIAGNOSTICS
     ts%d: no write ring.  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.

     ts%d: not online.  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.

     ts%d: error at bn%d.  An error occurred on the tape at block bn; status
     register and controller state is printed in hex and decimal.
