Software Product Description
PRODUCT NAME: RSX-11S, Version 2.1, Real Time Operating System
DESCRIPTION:
RSX-11 S is a memory-based real-time operating system designed to operate on a PDP-11 processor with
a minimum of 8K words of memory. The system is
not dependent upon any mass storage media for execution. RSX-11S is based on the RSX-11M disk-based
operating system and is fully subset compatible with
it. The I/O driver interface is identical. Device drivers
written for each system execute on the other. Further,
any application program that executes under RSX11 S will execute under RSX-11 M without change following a relink of the cbject program.
As a memory-based system, RSX-11S does not support a file system, non-resident tasks check pointing
(rollin/rollout), or overlays, or program development.
It provides a run-time environment for execution of
tasks on a memory-based processor. Since it is
based on RSX-11 M, RSX-11 S enjoys most of the i nherent features and generation capability of that system. RSX-11 S supports all of the peripheral devices
that are supported under RSX-11 M, including other
hardware features such as floating point processors,
parity memory, and memory management.
Tasks written in MACRO, FORTRAN IV, FORTRAN IVPLUS, or BASIC-PLUS-2 must be assembled or compiled and subsequently linked on the host system and
transported to the target RSX-11 S system for execution. Tasks written in FORTRAN require a minimum of
16K words of memory for the RSX-11 S target system.
Transportation of tasks between the RSX-11 M host
and the RSX-11 S target is provided via the File
Exchange Utility (FLX) on the host system and the
On-line Task Loader (OTL) on the target system.
RSX-11S requires an RSX-11M or RSX-11D, Version
6.2, system for host support and system generation.
The software components contained in the RSX-11S
distribution kit include the following:

Binary and Source Modules:
Monitor Console Routine - RSX-11 M Subset
On-line Task Loader
System Image Preservation Program
File Control Services (FCS) for record devices (does
not include directory support)
MINIMUM HARDWARE REQUIRED:
An RSX-11 M, Version 3.1, or RSX-11 D, Version 6.2,
system is required for system generation and program development.

SOFTWARE SUPPORT CATEGORIES
Each software product (hereinafter 'SOFTWARE') with a designated Support Category A or B in the applicable Software Product
Description (SPD) existing at the time of order will be the current release at the time of delivery and will conform to the SPD.
DIGITAL's sole obligation shall be to correct defects (nonconformance of the SOFTWARE to the SPD) as described below. Any
SOFTWARE with a deSignated Support Category C will be furnished on an 'as is' basis.
For SOFTWARE with a deSignated Support Category A or S, DIGITAL will provide the services set forth below without additional
charge.
CATEGORY A
1. Upon notification by customer to the nearest DIGITAL office that the computer system, including all required prerequisite
hardware and software, is ready for the installation of the SOFTWARE, DIGITAL will install such SOFTWARE in any location
within the contiguous forty-eight (48) United States, the District of Columbia, or a country in which DIGITAL or a subsidiary
of DIGITAL has a software service faCility. The notification must be received by DIGITAL and the system must be ready for
installation within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the SOFTWARE to customer or DIGITAL will have no obligation to
install. Installation will consist of: (1) verification that all components of the SOFTWARE have been received by customer, (2)
loading the SOFTWARE, and (3) executing a DIGITAL sample procedure.
2. During the ninety (90) day period after installation, if the customer encounters a problem with the current unaltered release
of the SOFTWARE which DIGITAL determines to be a defect in the SOFTWARE, DIGITAL will provide the following remedial
service (on site where necessary): (1) if the SOFTWARE is inoperable, apply a temporary correction (TC) or make a
reasonable attempt to develop an emergency by-pass, and (2) assist the customer to prepare a Software PerformanCe
Report (SPR) and submit it to DIGITAL.
3. During the one (1) year period following installation, if the customer encounters a problem with the SOFTWARE which his
diagnosis indicates is caused by a SOFTWARE defect, the customer may submit an SPR to DIGITAL. DIGITAL will respond
to problems reported in SPRs which are caused by defects in the current unaltered release of the SOFTWARE via the
Maintenance Periodical for the SOFTWARE, which reports SPRs received, code corrections, temporary corrections, generally
useful emergency by-passes and/or notice of the availability of corrected code. Software Updates, if any, released by
DIGITAL during the one (1) year period, will be provided to the customer on DIGITAL's standard distribution media as
specified in the applicable SPD. The customer will be charged only for the media on which such updates are provided,
unless otherwise stated in the applicable SPD, at DIGITAL's then current media prices.
CATEGORY S
During the one (1) year period following delivery, the services provided to the customer will be the same as set forth in 3 above.
CATEGORY C
SOFTWARE is provided on an 'as is' basis. Any software services, if available, will be provided at the then current charges.
DIGITAL shall have the right to make additional charges for any additional effort required to provide services resulting from
customer use of other than current unaltered release of the SOFTWARE operated in accordance with the SPD.
