[GreenKeys] Model 28 spaces on break or open loop

[W2HX]

Hi again.

I took some pictures. I wasn’t sure where to start counting as slot number
one.

These pictures were taken from the REAR of the unit looking forward.  The
KSR has more of these slots used. 

The screw driver was placed in a somewhat central slot, just to help orient
between the two photos taken (for continuity in counting if necessary).

ASR Slots (this machine spaces while running open and spaces when receiving
BLANK):

KSR Slots (this machine stays put when running open or receiving BLANK):

Can anyone tell what I am missing/need? 

TANKS!

Hi Eugene,

Lucky for you that you have two machines to compare.  First things first, is
there anything in the ASRs slot 22.  If not, that would explain a lot.

Next, note that you should see the function lever actuate when you hit the
blank key open the loop.  Compare the KSR to the ASR and you should see what
I mean.

Hi Russ.  I tried this experiment. You are right! The ASR does space on
blanks, whereas my KSR does not (KSR seems to work properly).  I also put
the loop on, pressed figs then opened the loop. I did this for FIGS and
LTRS. In both cases, the carriage spaced over.  
 
So I will now look for slot 22. When you say “working properly” what do you
mean exactly?
 
 
Thanks!
Eugene 
PS.

Does your M28 space on blanks or when the loop is open in both figs and ltrs
case?  Or, maybe in one but not both cases?

This is controlled by slot number 22 - it surpresses spacing on blank
characters or during an open loop condition or when the break key is held
down.
 
Check to see what's happening by temporarily lifting the paper roll out of
the way and watching to see if slot  22 is working correctly.

My 28 ASR also spaces along when its open. I think its ok, probably just an
optional tine or pawl or jig or thingamagiggy
