Punch Reader Unit
The Punch Reader Unit (PRU 930) connects the CPF 930 card punch and the CRF 930 card reader to
the DATANET-30.
The card punch used is the GE-200 Series 100 card-per-minute punch. The
card reader is optional with this module. When used, it operates the same as when the CRF 930
is installed with a CRU 930 module described above.
The card punch operates via the buffer selector and requires eight buffer selector addresses.
The PRU 930 consists of two modules.
Functional control of the punch is by the DATANET-30
