I have a TI315 brick which is I believe made by Koyo. The D3-HP handhelp programmer supposedly is compatable. My goal is to redo using a dl05 or 06. There is also an EPROM in the unit. I can surely read the eprom, but how is the neumonics stored, is there a way to reverse engineer it so I dont have to start from scratch. Or should I read out the program using the hand help programmer. Or can I read it out using the d3-232-dcu and directsoft. Thanks Thad

The TI315 brick is not compatible with DirectSoft.
Your best bet is to type the mnemonics into a text file, then convert them to the corresponding 06 mnemonics (most of the relay stuff is the same, e.g. STR, AND, ORSTR, but the types are different X/Y in 05/06 vs. IO (no type) in 315). However the box instructions are different, but should be understandable (DSTR in 315 is like LD in 05/06, ADD in 315 is like the various ADD instructions in 05/06).
Then, use the Mnemonic .txt import mechanism to get the program into DirectSoft (File->Import->Program... Mnemonic(*.txt) file)
