Terry… I saw messages about hooking up a battery to the LSI/11, and I happen to have a DEC microcomputer processor handbook, circa 1978, that has some info which may be of use to you. Backplane pin AS1 is +12v Battery Power Backplane pin AV1 is +5v Battery Power Only certain devices use these battery connections. AM1, BM1, AT1, BT1, AJ1, BJ1, AC2 & BC2 are all shown as "SYSTEM SIGNAL GROUND – DC RETURN" I just finished a course where we used the antique hardware for lab exercises, so I've been using the handbook (#P03-1117005-00) Hope this info is useful to you.
