Hi Alf:  You have a Private Line version Model 33.  It runs on current
loop signals.  For a wiring diagram for this set, go to:

http://www.hertzmail.com/TTY/TeletypeManuals/Model32-33/WD/model33_line_set.pdf

Eugene Hertz has been kind enough to provide this resource on-line.  Your
point of focus will be the terminal strip where the power and signal lines
terminate.  Look on the bottom left of page 11 and you will see the terminal
strip that is designated X.  Looking at the connector, it appears that there
is only a send pair and a receive pair.  That should make things simple.
Good luck with your project.  Regards,  Jerry Murphy
