B)_Jorking on Entgna wiring, All the pine of Nt are set at "eotive", tho pins of W2 ond N3'all rosaining inactive, Thon the whocl sormadtia idontionl with that of tho Bigna, As all otierfactars cleo agree with tho corresponding ones on ‘he Tigan intorchangeebie wosiing between both maohines is possible, 0) A sonatng-point Sa also provided opposite wheel IIT, If the tamover notch om the ring of LIT se toadhed by it, then Z tama on onopsoe ‘hon tho noxt lottor 1e keyed, IP this novonent colnetdos with e stop caigcd by Mi this agein results in the single step. Thus the possibility of interchangeable working with tho Bnigne remains, In adAition the machine now gets © fourth wheel, whioh 48 plaood between IIT end U ond dose rot more on whon key is touched, Tt oorresponds to tho fourth wheel fn tho Navel, Bnigna and de used for interohongesble woricing with this machine, 4) In the sumer of 1944 Dy, Sees (ORK/Ch4) told me that the xeciprogel influcncing of tH ‘was to bo altered in sore way. T oonnot rerenber detatie but nothing fundasontel on tho prinoiple of the macnine described under o) was changed, Intozchangeable woxking with eray and navel Enigna resained possible,
