All I have is the service manual for the 4661 plotter (a special plotter
for the 21 and 31 calculators). It does have some info on interfacing the
machine, but not a lot.
Oh oh, I have one of those sinking feelings in my stomach. Our amateur radio
club bazaar was yesterday, and there were a couple of plotters out there. At
the end when everything was free, I found a couple of manuals for the Tek
4662 Interactive Digital Plotters, one labeled "4662 Interactive Digital
Plotter", and the other "4662 Interactive Digital Plotter (with Option 31)
and judging by the pictures, one of the plotters was out there and may have
hit the dumpster <sigh>. Next year, I would *really* like to have an 18'
bobtail truck out there to collect all the stuff that would normally head
for the dumpster. Stuff that was dumpstered included quite a bit of older
test equipment, oscilloscopes including about 4 or 5 Tek scopes (531 or so),
Heathkit scopes, and too much stuff to remember. But yes, I did save the
manuals.
