The UV EPROM eraser should be here in a day or two. Amazon apologized
for the delay. So I can copy the EPROMs just fine but I would really
like the ladder programs so that I can make some changes to the
machine.
Â*Â*Â* I understand that the decompiled ladder will noit have mnemonics
but maybe I can decipher it anyway.

How in heck do yu expect help with a decompiler when you haven't told
anyone what type of CPU it is?

It's even harder...ladder logic isn't a "cpu machine language" as such,
it's an interpreter running in some native cpu machine language...so
there would be a whole other layer of translation involved in order to
produce anything a human might be able to comprehend. Unless your
computer is made from relays...but why bother.
