The way it was programmed was to start at address 0 and step up one "bit" of the ID code at a time. The unit had 8 output lines, but for simplicity it is easier to program all of them the same. A "0" in the programming produced a tone, a "1" produced no tone. The addresses are stepped through at a 10ms-100ms rate, depending on the code speed desired. You need to break the code desired down into dits, dahs, and spaces, then program accordingly, leaving 2 blank bits at the beginning of the programming. For example "SOS" would be "di di di dah dah dah di di di" where each "di" would be one bit programmed to 0, and each "dah" would be three consecutive bits programmed to 0 (since a "dah" is three times longer than a "di"). Spaces are programmed as a "1". Your binary output, starting at memory add 0000 and advancing one address each time, would look like: 1101010111000100010001110101011111111111111 Once you program your desired ID, the rest of the chip gets filled with "1"s. This is the default state when you erase a 2716, its all 1s. Since the chip programs in hex, you will essentially be writing "FF" or "00" in each address. Again, writing "SOS" into the chip would look like this: FF FF 00 FF 00 FF 00 FF FF FF 00 00 00 FF 00 00 00 FF 00 00 00 FF FF FF 00 FF 00 FF 00 FF FF FF FF That is all you need to program, the rest of the bits in the chip will stay at "FF", which is the erased position. If you want to program different things on the different lines, it becomes more complex, but I think you see the pattern here.
