I don't think "the VAX Architecture Reference Manual" is a single
thing.  If so, the rtVAX 300 isn't a VAX, because the VARM I have
specifies MTPR/MFPR console access.  Neither is the KA-630, because the
VARM I have specifies PDP-11 compatability mode, which the KA-630
doesn't have as far as I can recall.  (My VARM is rev 6.1, of
1982-05-20, according to the cover.)

Jeez. Get the new version! :-)

Your version was written before even the uVAX I...
