I had posted an article a few weeks ago asking for help
getting our Caesar VLSI layout package from U of C Berkeley
to work properly.
I am happy to announce that we found the problem! Soon
after I had had posted that article, we found out, through
a long telephone conversation with AED in California, that
one of the dip switches on the bit pad was set wrong. The
ReadMe file on the distribution tape told us to set pin
8 on switch 1 in the bit-pad to off. This is the culprit!
This switch must be set to On to work properly. This arises
from the fact that berkeley uses their own proms in the AED
which do not need that pin to be set!
I have recieved many suggestions and some additional
inquiries into the problem. A few people even had the same
problem we have had and had the correct solutions!
Again I'd like to thank everyone who took the time and
trouble to respond to my questions an offer their suggestions!
I hope this will help anybody who has the same problems in the
future!
