PROM Burner

I have found an ancient PROM burner, a Data I/O System 19, with a Unipac
module fitted. Test stickers on it are dated 1980.
It came with an "Operators Synopsis" with which I am totally out of my depth
and a wall chart dated 1985 with details of PROMs of the day and which
Unipak revision applies to which.

??????????

I had hoped to be able to use it to back up older ROMs which my circa 1995
EPROM programmer can't handle. Is it usable for this?

It has a serial type connector but no software (it predates the PC). There
is an LED and a hexadecimal keyboard. It looks like it was meant to be used
manually !! Typing stuff in character by character.

There's nothing on Data I/O's website about this and they haven't replied to
my email as yet.

Can anyone offer advice?

Thanks
Hans
