[GreenKeys] Need some step-by-step Elmering TG-7-B, TG-26-A and -B

[Keith Wood]

I have a TG-7-B TTY.

I have a TG-26-A Reperforator (without the cover).

I have a TG-26-B Reperforator (apparently complete).

I have a Rectifier RA-87.

I have a Flesher TU-170 RTTY Terminal Unit.

I have the manuals for the above, except the TG-26-B.

I THINK I have the cables for the above.  All but the TU are in chests, 
and apparently came from Army MARS.  I got the TU from Fleabay.

What I need is some advice and guidance for getting this stuff up and 
working.  I want to use it with a Yaesu FTDX5000, so will build the 
appropriate cable.

1) To just get the RTTY up, do I need anything other than the TTY, TU 
and cables to/from TTY, TU and radio?

2) I believe that the TTY is 115VAC, and the selector switch just sets 
cycles.  So I can plug in and go? Does anyone know the amps this uses? 
I'm not finding that in the manual.

3) I'm seeing conflicting (or at least conFUSing) info regarding power 
for the Reperforators.  The manual says that "governed series motors" 
run on either 105-125VAC or 105-125VDC.  Then it says that the "jack 
box" needs 105-115VDC.  I THINK that means that I need to plug the 
Rectifier into 105-125VAC, then the Reperforator to the Rectifier.  Or 
do I even need the jack box?  I see that it connects to line units, 
which I don't have and apparently don't need.

4) The manual I have only covers the TG-26-A.  Is there anything 
different about the TG-26-B that I need to know about?

Thanks,
