Is this RK05 test interface operating, or is there documentation in a form where it could be cloned? Does it read and write or is the purpose primarily intended to duplicate functionality of the original RK05 exerciser?I have built my RK05 test interface and currently writing software for it.
Until so far it is doing what I want...

To rigorously test the RK05 emulator I was planning to flip the emulator signals so the emulator could be a tester. I think @PDP11GY has done this too.
Considering the following functionality but maybe it already exists?
