This looks like the kind of front panel one would by after-market for a
microcomputer.  Its HEX, right?.  This is just a *guess*

Here is an example by CGRS of what I am talking about

that don't usually have a front panel.

Another unknown frontpanel

Hi,

I have another frontpanel, this one is from Plessey Peripheral Systems and 
must come from a 16 bit system. It's only the board with LEDs and 
switches. Does anyone know the system this panel comes from?
