[GreenKeys] KLINSCHMIT TT-117 WIRING HELP

[Steve Garrison]

The TT-117 was actually part of an AN-FGC/25 and the cable that I think you
are referring to goes to another cable that was part of the TT-178 (or was
it 179?) that was the reperforator/TD of the set.  One cable had a male
multi-pin (25 pins?) canon type connector and the other cable had the female
corresponding connector.  

 

The cable was used for communicating to the reperf without using the loop.

 

Can you send a picture so I can see if I am remembering this right?

 

I do remember a solenoid that 'rocked' a lever back and forth, but that's
about as much as I remember without the machine or manual in front of me.

 

Maybe you just need to replace that entire keyboard mechanism.  Huh, since I
made that parts machine by donating the shaft maybe the keyboard needs a new
home also.  Let's discuss.

I have been working on my Klienschmit TT-117 tty for the past year. Special
thanks to Steve N4TTY for providing me the main drive shaft WITH the gears.
I could never have gotten past first base. I now have one remaining problem
that some one of you might have knowledge to help me finish this project. My
TT-117 is the version that came from a Crypto system.. It has the red light
on the front housing; a 1" diameter 18" long cable/connector hanging from
left side;  the typing 70 something levers that flip up to remember the key
strokes (???); the keyboard rotating disk with a knife lever that stops the
rotation once a key stroke occurs (normal knife has two ends - mine has only
the start side ). Now the problem....... the unit keeps rotating. It is
suppose to stop after it rotates once and wait for the next keyboard
selection. There is a solenoid ???? round module directly behind the kyboard
that has a flat lever which trips the run/stop on the front right. This
lever appears to stop rotation waiting. The two wires from the round module
runs to the horizontal sliding red arrow that runs across the faceplate. I
DO NOT HAVE ANY INFORMATION on this final problem(s). I don't see any source
to activate solenoid? 

 

Sorry for this long email, but after 1 years labor, your input could save me
hours of interpurlating.
