John, thanks!

This was the problem area. Stop Lever 6909 was gunked up tight. Oiled it and cycled it, back together, and the machine is running open again all before I’ve had any coffee this morning!

Later today I’ll try to get my loop supply issues sorted out, and I know I have issues with the carriage returning to home, I’ll write that situation up later today as well. 

Thanks again!

This is kind of reminding me of a problem I had awhile back.  It was solved by removing the range scale on the left end of the main shaft.  On the back side of it is the mechanism which releases the selector cam to rotate which in turn kicks off all the other operations.

In my case, Trip Plunger (P/N 7007) was stuck in the depressed position and wouldn't pop out when a start pulse releases the selector magnet. More of the linkage was gummy as well.   What eventually is supposed to happen is the Stop Lever (P/N 6909) is to be free to rotate and release the selector cam Two screws hold this complete unit and it can come off without things falling out (at least under normal circumstances). There is some slop in the location, so you might want to run a magic marker or something around the heads of the two screws you remove.  I didn't have any problem without having done that, but don't know if I was lucky or it just isn't that critical. 


Of course you may have a completely different problem YMMV.

Keyboard goes in series with the selector magnet.

Also, should my keyboard and printer plugs be wired in parallel, or
series to each other with my ST-6000 loop supply? I’ve tried both, and
can’t seem
to stimulate the selector with the keyboard. If I have the printer only
connected to the loop, I can push in on the selector solenoid and it
will stay in until power is removed. That’s the only sign of life.
Can’t do this
with the keyboard plugged in either series or parallel, doesn’t hold.

I don’t recall that the operation of the is thing was so puzzling!

Thanks,

Good evening and happy new year! I just took my model 15 out of storage
for the first time since I moved. (Been a few years.)
I have an odd situation where the printer just isn’t in “print
mode.† The
keyboard side seems to be working fine.

The best way I can say it, would be analogous  to someone holding the
clutch in somewhere on a manual transmission vehicle. The motor is
engaging
the main shaft nicely, but not all of the main shaft is turning with
it. Was there some sort of lever I was wise enough to move to put
things in some safe travel mode?
Or, possibly is something just too gunked up somewhere?

It ran when it was parked, I do remember that. :D

Thanks,
