I imagine you may know a lot about this, but what OS/machine were they using to develop it? PDP-11?, CPM? What editors did they use? Line editors? Which machines did they use to test on? Most drives and even RAM was unreliable back the

The magnet is usually used as a mitigator to turn off the device in case the device is doing something wrong like producing pulses too fast. There is typically RF communication that can communicate to the device and can often be used to tur
