Well, this will give you a good start.

  The interface to the cassette adapter is through a 5-pin DIN
  connector at the rear of the system unit:
 
                                key
                             3 1
                             5 4
                                 2
 
 
 
                 1. relay common
                 2. ground
                 3. relay (normally open)
                 4. data in
                 5. data out
 
 The data output level can be selected to be 0.68v or 75mv by moving
 a jumper on the system board. Writing a zero to bit 3 of the I/O
 port at hex 61 will close the contacts of the relay.
