# IBM System/360 Model 40

The IBM System/360 Model 40 was a mid-range member of the IBM System/360 family. It was announced on April 7, 1964, shipped in 1965, and withdrawn on October 7, 1977.

## History

On April 7, 1964, IBM announced the IBM System/360, to be available in six models. The 360/40 was first delivered in April 1965.
The 360/30 and the 360/40 were the two largest revenue producing System/360 models, accounting for over half of the units sold.

## Models

Five models of the 360/40 were offered. The D40, E40, F40, G40 and H40 were configured with 16K, 32K, 64K, 128K and 256K of core memory and correspondingly 16, 32, 64, 128 and 128 multiplexer subchannels.
The H40 occupied "more floor space than the other models."$^{:p.5}$

## Configuration

A typical, early, basic Model 40 system had the following configuration: :
| Model 40 processor | IBM 2040 Central Processing Unit *128 KB byte storage *storage protection feature *universal instruction set *one multiplexor channel *two selector channels *interval timer |
| Operator console | IBM 1052 Typewriter- Keyboard (usually assigned to 009 hexadecimal address) |
| Unit record device | IBM 1442 Card Reader-Punch (00A) or IBM 2540 Reader-Punch (00C & 00D) |
| Line printer | IBM 1443 Printer (00B) or IBM 1403 Printer (00E) |
| Disk storage | IBM 2311 Magnetic Disk Drives (190 & 191) or IBM 2314 Direct Access Storage Facility |
| Tape storage | IBM 2401 Magnetic Tape Units (180 & 181 for 7-track, and 182 & 183 for 9-track) |
| Telecommunications controller (If used in a telecommunications environment) | IBM 2701 Communication Controller |

## Microprogramming

Like most System/360 models the Model 40 is microprogrammed. The microcode is stored in transformer read-only storage (TROS), organized as up to 8192 words of 56 bits each. Standard microcode consists of up to 4096 words. The additional 4096 words are used for the 1401 or 1410 compatibility feature.

## IBM 1400 series emulation

With the additional Compatibility Feature hardware and Compatibility Support software under DOS/360, the IBM 1401/1440/1460 object programs can be run in the emulation mode, with little or no reprogramming.

## Other

Although the cover of IBM's MVT Guide indicates that even a 360/40 could run MVT, the IBM operating system used was usually the realistically sized DOS/360, because all but one model of the 360/40 had less than MVT's minimum memory requirements of 256KB.
The IBM System/360 Model 40 was developed at IBM Hursley and manufactured at IBM's facilities in Poughkeepsie, New York, Mainz, Germany; and Fujisawa, Japan.
A modified Model 40 ran CP-40, the ancestor of CP/CMS, which in turn was the progenitor of the VM line.

He was the grandfather of former major league pitcher Daniel Barone.

Barone was in his eighth season of professional baseball when the Pittsburgh Pirates called him up in September 1960, when MLB active rosters expanded to 40 players. He had batted .204 in 143 games played for the Triple-A Columbus Jets of the International League. The 1960 Pirates were en route to their first National League title since 1927. Barone debuted as a pinch runner for 42-year-old player-coach Mickey Vernon on September 22 in the ninth inning of a 2–2 game against the Chicago Cubs, but did not score in a contest eventually won by Pittsburgh, 3–2 in 11 innings.

# Patrick H. Reason

Patrick Henry Reason, first named Patrice Rison (March 17, 1816 – August 12, 1898), was one of the earliest African-American engravers and lithographers in the United States. He was active as an abolitionist (along with his brother Charles Lewis Reason). He was a leader in a fraternal order, gaining recognition for Hamilton Lodge No. 710, New York, as part of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America.

## Early life and education

Reason was born in 1816 in New York City as one of four children. His father, Michel Rison, was native to St. Anne Island, Guadeloupe, and his mother, Elizabeth Melville, was native to Saint-Domingue, the former French colony that achieved independence as Haiti. He was baptized Patrice Rison in April 1816 at St. Peter's Catholic Church. His sister Policarpe died at age four in 1818.
With his two brothers Elver and Charles L. Reason, Patrick attended New York's African Free School. At the age of 13, his drawing of the school building was engraved for the frontispiece of Charles C. Andrews's history of the school published in 1830. He was apprenticed to Stephen Henry Gimber (1806–1862), an English engraver and lithographer in the city.

## Career

Reason set up his own shop, where he engraved portraits and other images for anti-slavery and other books and journals, as well as for individuals. His engravings include an 1835 version of the kneeling female slave; an 1840 portrait of United States Senator Benjamin Tappan (R-Ohio); the frontispiece portrait for the 1849 autobiography of Henry Bibb, a fugitive from slavery who became an abolitionist lecturer; and the coffin plate of Daniel Webster. An 1840 lithograph portrait of Bibb has also been attributed to Reason.
As a member of the New York Philomathean Society, Reason and others petitioned but were refused inclusion in an American fraternal organization, the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. They were granted recognition from the British-based, Grand United Order of Oddfellows, and formed the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America. The first lodge was Philomathean Lodge, No. 646, soon followed by Hamilton Lodge, No. 710, also in New York. Reason designed the membership certificate, at one point served as the lodge's grand master, and in 1858 composed the Ruth degree, the first to be conferred upon female members and became the Household of Ruth.
In 1869, Reason moved with his family to Cleveland, Ohio. There he joined the firm of Sylvester Hogan, where he created jewelry and made plate engravings until his death in 1898.

## Marriage and family

In 1862, Reason married Esther Cunningham (1835–1920) of Leeds, England. Their son, Charles Lewis Reason (named for Patrick's brother), was born in 1867. He became a doctor and practiced medicine in Cleveland, Ohio. Charles Reason died a widower in Elyria, southwest of Cleveland. He had no descendants.
