Maybe Billy Petit recognizes this. Before I saw the above, I was
about to declare it an Intercom terminal controller (Intercom
stations were used for remote job entry). But QSE is CDC parlance
for "Quote for Special Equipment" (as opposed to QSS "Quote for
Special Software"). Which means that it was a custom-order job,
perhaps for a defense customer.
