Turns out the "The Director" tape reader I
purchased last week was
defective and I got a refund. So I thought I'd try my hand at the FANUC
TAPE READER A860. I may need to make a serial cable (?) to connect from
the internal connector don't know yet. Or maybe the internal 50-pin port
from the photos is for the punch. Don't know yet, thus the need for the
manual.
I checked bitsavers.org but there was no manual there, anyone here have a
PDF or URL of the PDF for the FACIT tape reader A860-0056-T020?
A860 is a Fanuc part number, not Facit. So, if Facit made
the reader, you should look for another
part number somewhere. Fanuc, way back when, did make
excellent manuals with full schematics,
so there might be a schematic available somewhere in a huge
book of Fanuc schematics for
that vintage machine. but, you'd need to know about what
vintage of Fanuc to look for.
