  David,
  Going from my great-but not too long memory, the "thumb wheel" that the customer turned was connected to a gear set-up, similar to the gears in the "pulse converter". I can't recall, but I think that this was directly connected to the "write-in arms" (that spun). When you stopped the thumb wheel, with your selected number and letter showing in the window, you were to push the "select button". This mechanically (I think) locked (with a sort of mechanical "sprague relay" armature) the write in arms, and as the button was fully depressed, it would fire the "write in coil", thus pushing the pin--Ron Rich
