Software Product Description
PRODUCT NAME: CORAL 66, Version 3
DESCRIPTION:
CORAL 66 is a high-level block-structured programming language. It is the standard general purpose
language prescribed by the British Government for
real time and process control applications. It is defined in the "Official Definition of CORAL 66" (OD)
published in 1973 by Her Majesty's Stationery Office
(ISBN 0 11 470221 7).
The language is designed to replace assembly level
programming in modern industrial and commercial
applications. It is used for long life products where
easy maintenance and flexibility are required.
The PDP-11 CORAL 66 compiler is implemented in
accordance with the OD. It operates under the RSX11M, RSX-11D, and lAS operating systems. In addition, the compiler provides the following features:
• BYTE, LONG (32-bit integer) and DOUBLE (64-bit
floating pOint) numeric types.
• Generation of re-entrant code at the procedure level.
• Generated code executable on any valid RSX-11S
operating system that includes the Extended Instruction Set (EIS).
• Switchable option to select target PDP-11 computer
instruction sets.
• Switchable option to optimize generated code.
• Switchable option to check the bounds of array
type variables.
• Conditional compilation of defined parts of source
code.
• English language error messages at compile and
(optionally) run-time.
• Switch able option to control listing output.
• INCLUDE keyword to incorporate CORAL 66 source
code from user-defined files.
• Switchable option to read card format.

SPD 14.56.5

tem's Task Builder to produce a task (program) ready
for execution. The OTS is re-entrant and part or all of
the OTS can be made into a shared library for concurrent use by the multiple tasks.
The PDP-11 CORAL 66 OTS provides the following
capabilities:
• control of task execution
• control of task status
• system information functions
• event processing
• trap processing
• handler interface processing through 010
• intertask communication processing
• stream, record and block INPUT/OUTPUT using
FCP
• terminal interface handling
• mathematical functions
The OTS permits the user to generate an executable
task to run under the RSX-11M, RSX-11S, or lAS operating systems, or a free-standing program to run on
any PDP-11 without an operating system. The OTS
free-standing programs provide the following capabilities:
• Bootable device module support for
1. PC 11 Paper tape reader
2. RX11 Floppy disk
3. RK11 Disk driver
4. PC11 DECtape
• DL 11 Downline load support
• Terminal interface handlers
• Stream input/output

Floating Point Processor (FPP) Support
The CORAL 66 with FPP support generates code that
supports the FP11 Floating Point Processor Option of
the PDP-11 computer system. The FP11 is available
on several PDP-11 series computers to provide special support for floating point and integer arithmetic.

MINIMUM HARDWARE REQUIRED:
Any valid RSX-11 M, RSX-11 D, or lAS operating system configuration which includes:
• KT11 Memory Management Unit (or equivalent)
• KE11-E Extended Instruction Set (or equivalent)
• A 9-track magnetic tape system, an RK11 disk cartridge system, or an RK611 disk cartridge system
• A 24K-word (RSX-11M, RSX-11D and lAS) main
memory partition

Object Time System
The PDP-11 CORAL 66 Object Time System (OTS) is
a set of object modules selectively linked with compiler-produced object modules by the operating sys-

OPTIONAL HARDWARE:
Supports any mass storage, unit record or terminal
device supported by the prerequisite software.

ADDENDUM
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 B, 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
DIG ITAL during the one (1) year period, will be provided to the customer on DIGITAL's standard distribution media as
