Hello,
Those terminals are based on the IBM Selectric typewriter.
I have used them +- 1975 and must have the IBMmanual of it but d'not ask me where.
If you should need it I can search for it and copy.
Groetjes,
Old-Hans

New subject: Another unknown computer panel
Anyone recognize this computer panel? I believe it's from an IBM machine
but there are no markings I can find.
Lot's of nice switches and lights. I would like to animate this someday.

Looks like it's from a data channel (I/O processor).
I have no idea what system it belonged to.

I agree with Bill - it sure looks like the console for a channel controller.
But I don't have any idea for what system, either.

Seems to be from a S/360. Switches at the bottom directly correspond
to the S/360 CCW and the indicators at the top, a S/360 CSW. (Check
them against your green card).

No idea, but it's a shame the columns aren't quite "complete" or you
could
just about get away with using it as a pixel display for a game of pong ;-)
Nice find - I'm glad people are saving this stuff even if they can't save the
entire machine.
