Ok, it's scanned and a compressed PDF is up at:
http://iguana.crystel.com/pro350/xt100.pdf
Some of the pages are slightly skewed, I'll see about correcting those
before putting the whole .tiff set up there (that's over 14gb). Not much
difference between 300dpi (the first 20 pages) and 600dpi (the rest) so
I might just scan at 300dpi going forward.

I have wanted to see that for my work on the Pro. It would be great to
get it
scanned and posted, whether the copy lands on
Bitsavers or elsewhere. As
far
as I know it is not currently available.
Does it include the programming manual for the 4-line UART option board?
I
have such a board and since I wrote a driver for
it, decades ago, I must
at one
time have had a programming manual, but I
certainly don't have it any
longer.
The internal bus and the boot ROM details are examples of stuff not
covered in
the currently available manuals on Bitsavers;
those details were not
exposed to
the outside world for some reason.
