Hi Clarence:

If I recall correctly, your 33 has a Carterfone modem in it.  If this is 
the case, then it is designed to connect to a phone line for dial-out/in use.

If you are talking about a different 33, which has the "private-wire" CCU 
(with the blank plate), then you should have either one-pair (half-duplex) 
or two-pairs (full-duplex) of wires coming out of the CCU (depending on how 
the 33 is jumpered internally).  If this is the case, then you can hook it 
to your TTY232 interface (though I would use the low-voltage loop, not the 
high-voltage loop).

If you hook the 33 to your computer, keep in mind that the 33 uses ascii, 
and you can talk to it with a program such as windows Hyperterminal.  When 
your TTY232 interface is connected to a 28 or other baudot machine, the 
computer needs to be running a program such as HeavyMetal or RTTYArt, which 
sends baudot directly to the serial port.  Your TTY232 box does not provide 
ascii-to-baudot conversion.

Does anyone recognize the wire colors of ID names of the wires coming out 
of Clarence's 33?

thanks,

gil
