                     15: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     16: The ts-11 combination provides a standard tape drive
                     17: interface as described in
                     18: .IR mtio (4).
                     19: The ts-11 operates only at 1600 bpi, and only one transport
                     20: is possible per controller.

                     31: \fBts%d: no write ring\fR.  An attempt was made to write on the tape drive
                     32: when no write ring was present; this message is written on the terminal of
                     33: the user who tried to access the tape.
                     34: .PP
                     35: \fBts%d: not online\fR.  An attempt was made to access the tape while it
                     36: was offline; this message is written on the terminal of the user
                     37: who tried to access the tape.
                     38: .PP
                     39: \fBts%d: hard error bn%d xs0=%b\fR.  A hard error occurred on the tape
                     40: at block \fIbn\fR; status register 0 is printed in octal and symbolically
                     41: decoded as bits.
                     42: .SH BUGS
                     43: If any non-data error is encountered on non-raw tape, it refuses to do anything
                     44: more until closed.
                     45: .PP
                     46: The device lives at the same address as a tm-11
                     47: .IR tm (4);
                     48: as it is very difficult to get this device to interrupt, a generic
                     49: system assumes that a ts is present whenever no tm-11 exists but
                     50: the csr responds and a ts-11 is configured.
                     51: This does no harm as long as a non-existent ts-11 is not accessed.
