as I recall from back in the late 50s we used to punch
tapes with Figs+J followed by Figs+S when we wanted
to ring the bell, so that either type of machine would ding.
Of course, for 'music' tapes that kinda throws off
the timing !!
On M28 stunt boxes, one could probably code a slot
for each code and have each one trigger the bell, so
that either code would ding.
