This charset is available in recode under the name
CDC-NOS, with NOS as an acceptable alias.
This is one of the charset in use on CDC Cyber NOS systems to represent ASCII, sometimes named NOS 6/12 code for coding ASCII. This code is also known as caret ASCII. It is based on a six bits character set in which small letters and control characters are coded using a ^ escape and, sometimes, a @ escape.
The routines given here presume that the six bits code is already expressed in ASCII by the communication channel, with embedded ASCII ^ and @ escapes.
Here is a table showing which characters are being used to encode each ASCII character.

This charset is available in recode under the name Bang-Bang.
This is the local code in use on Cybers at Universite de Montreal, which grave and serious people there prefer to name ASCII code display. This code is also known as Bang-bang. It is based on a six bits character set in which capitals, French diacritics and a few others are coded using an ! escape followed by a single character, and control characters using a double ! escape followed by a single character.
The routines given here presume that the six bits code is already expressed in ASCII by the communication channel, with embedded ASCII ! escapes.
Here is a table showing which characters are being used to encode each ASCII character.
