[GreenKeys] A little Kleinschmidt help needed

[Steve Garrison]

Not to my knowledge Bruce.  But it is pretty simple to get hooked up right.  I've done it thousands of times.  If it runs open when it should be running closed just reverse the signal lines.  Then make a note of which terminal has which color wire.  If you lose the note or the wires are both the same color, as they were on a spool of field wire, you only have to try two ways.  So you have a 50/50 chance of being right the first time.

The KSR, however, is sensitive to the polarity of the loop current. The selector magnets use a permanent magnet instead of a spring, so the wrong polarity will cause the printer to "run open" even with current flowing. Is there any setup or adjustmen that will allow the loop current to flow in either direction, like a model 15 or 28? Is there a selector magnet available using a spring instead of the magnet?
