AFAIK they are not normally serial. I did have a model 7102 Flexowriter at one
time that was Async ASCII RS-232, 110 Baud (the bustle had small cards with

For some reason, even though these are the newer
model of Flexowriter,
they seem less common than the older ones. I have several (3 I think)
of these Flexowriters as well. I don't think any of mine are in
working condition, considering they all came from The Black Hole where
everything was pretty dirty.
So do these have a current loop interface? Are these the model that
was used in early 60s computing environments?
