This is what the ICP claims to support:
Do you want to build an ICP for an rtVAX 1000 or MicroVAX I, II, 3200,
3300, 3400, 35NN, 36NN, 3800, 3900, 4000 [NO] ? yes
Do you want to build an ICP for MicroVAX 3100 Model 30,40,80 [NO] ?
Do you want to build an ICP for MicroVAX 2000, MicroVAX 3100 [NO] ?
Do you want to build an ICP for KAV30 [NO] ?
Do you want to build an ICP for 6000-2NN, 6000-3NN [NO] ?
Do you want to build an ICP for 6000-4NN [NO] ?
Do you want to build an ICP for 6000-5NN [NO] ?
Do you want to build an ICP for 6000-6NN [NO] ?
Do you want to build an ICP for 9000 [NO] ?
Do you want to build an ICP for VAXstation II/GPX, VAXstation 3200 [NO] ?
Do you want to build an ICP for VAXstation II [NO] ?

It's an SDK but no one calls it that. It would be much easier to
understand if they did. One creates an application in C or Pascal. Then
you compile/link it with ELN libraries. Maybe it supports other
languages but the docs mention C and Pascal.
$ cc program.c + ELN$:VAXELNC/LIB
$ link program.obj + ELN$:RTLSHARE/LIB + RTL/LIB
Then a .SYS gets create with ebuild.
$ ebuild program
This .SYS is then downline loaded on a supported system from the VMS
node ELN is on.
$ copy SAMPLE.SYS SYS$COMMON:[MOM$SYSTEM]
$ dir SYS$COMMON:[MOM$SYSTEM]
Directory SYS$COMMON:[MOM$SYSTEM]
READ_ADDR.SYS;10 SAMPLE.SYS;5
Total of 2 files.
Set the node to load this file on the target. SIMH has an rtvax1000 that
will work. Note that it is diskless and boots off the network.
