Description
The Fuji Card Reader was a 72-column card reader for instructions, made by Fuji Tsushinki Manufacturing Corporation (currently Fujitsu). A 60-channel tape reader was previously used to read instructions for the FACOM 100, but this 72-column card reader was used for later computers such as the FACOM 128A (1956), 128B (1958), FACOM 138A (1957) and FACOM 212A (1959). This unit was comprised of a card reader mechanism and a relay device for read gates, and was designed so that two or four sets of these units could be installed in a single desk.
