Hello Technet!
Wire Wrap - no, this is not a NCT joke.  We've been asked to look at
building some of a pretty old system.  The only problem is the backplane
- it uses wire wrap, about 800 wires - so we would not enjoy doing it
manually.  We've got a machine for the x-y locating, an EPC Technology
14/YA that for some reason we call a Gardner Denver, but it hasn't been
used in about 10 years and there's nobody left here who knows how to
program it.

Is anyone on Technet familiar with such a machine?  It's got the floppy
drive option, but I can't find any floppy disks for it - just paper
tapes.  If I could even get my hands on a copy of a valid program I
could probably figure out how to make it work.  I'm not up for reverse
engineering the paper tapes though...

Thanks for any assistance.
