VaxStationII/GPX Vert. Retrace Interrupts?

  I had a real-time data collection program running on a 
  VaxStation-I that required that the verticle retrace interrupts
   from the VCB01 be turned OFF. ( It required putting a scope
   on the Q-bus to watch the interrupt request lines to discover
   that this was the problem - the fact that there WAS such an 
   interrupt every 1/30th  ( or was it 1/60 ? ) sec. was sort of
  documented but not very prominently! ) 

   I am trying to port this code to a VaxStation II /GPX .
    
   1) Is this also necessary with the GPX/VCB02 board ? 

   2) How do I do it / What are the register definitions ?

   I have made several attempts to order documentation from DEC
   but nothing I have has the right info. If someone can send me 
   bit definitions for the VCB02 (and the part # of the manual I
   need ) it would be greatly appreciated.
