[GreenKeys] I (don't) hear bells...

[DR HOUSE]

Joe,

The bell is electrically activated on a M28 when the stunt box contact  
is made for closing the circuit to the bell.
On most machines that have a simple stunt box the contacts are above  
slot number 28.  When your machine receives FIGS S you should see the  
contact operate and the bell DING if it was a military or Bell  
machine.  If it was a Western Union machine the bell DING is FIGS J.

The bell on a M15 works a bit differently but should be Dinging on one  
of these two codes.

Hi one more time this morning!

I was wondering (again) how to get the bells working in my ASR 28 and  
my Model-15. They both have bells, but I can get neither to go 'ding'  
even when sending "FIGS BELL".

Just curious, as I am considered a bit echm, 'dingy' by some. OK,  
sorry for the pun, but seriously, I would like to be able to hear the  
melodious tinkling of TTY bells as they are hammering away...

Joe
