Teletype Machine Resurrected Hackaday
Hackaday Teletype The website describes not only the restoration process but also the setup, how to connect to the machine and how to communicate with the machine. great work!. Since i didn't want to pull apart my tty modem and mess with capacitors, i decided to create an arduino based tty generator. the goal is that i can then use the arduino as an interim method of communication between my relay computer project and the teletype machine.

This arduino based tty generator feeds a modem that drives an ancient lorenz 15 teletype machine. As is common with older mechanical devices that have been sitting for extended periods of time, the first thing this machine needed was a bath. the machine was separated into its three main parts and soaked in a degreasing solvent. The original wiring in this machine was called deltabeston – a type of wire by general electric which uses asbestos insulation. to play it safe, that wire was left alone.

In his blog, marc from robot dialogs presents a very nice hack involving a ibm selectric ii typewriter: by means of an arduino board and several solenoids, the typewriter can be successfully connected to a computer to emulate a vintage teletype. Read about the frustrations, obstacles, and so close near successes of unlondon’s quest to collaboratively restore , hack and demonstrate a tweeting teletype machine. It’s a pleasant surprise for us to see keyboard and printer unit come away from the chassis for servicing so easily, and by stepping it through its operation step by step we can see how it works in.
