There were two generations that used a belt, and a 3rd generation known as the 6:5 which used a proprietary disk that wrote similar to a ordinary record player. The company should have quit while it was ahead. The feed mechanism impossible to keep it adjusted, and it would regularly misfire. When the operator is not in view of the machine, it was a HUGE problem for the customer, such as when attached to the IBM tone dial system in a hospital. | |
