Q-BUS primer?

At this point, all I'm really looking for is a good "starting point". Can anyone recomment a good document/resources for a Q-bus newbie?

M3106 4-line async M7264 11/03 processor with 4-Kword RAM M7504 Ethernet adapter (older DEQNA) M7546 TMSCP controller for TK50 M7555 Winchester and floppy disk controller M7606 MicroVAX II KA630 M7608 x2 2/4 MB RAM (boards are fully populated) M7940 x2 SLU Module M7944 x3 4-Kword RAM M7946 x2 RX01 floppy disk controller M8043 x2 4-SLU peripheral interface M8044DB x2 32Kword RAM M8044DF x2 32Kword RAM M8047 RAM, Async, ROMs M8186 11/23 CPU M9047 Grant continuity M9400YA 120-ohm terminators with refresh & floppy boot M9400YE Headers and 250 Ohm resistors I've also got the following third party cards - I don't know anything about these, other than the identifying marks found on the boards listed below - if anyone can provide more information on these, that would be helpful: (Several of them appear to be media controllers of one sort or another). Andromedia Systems UDC-11 rev H (50 pin connector at front edge) Micro Technology Inc. MSV05B (x2) (50 pin connector at front edge) TD Systems TDL-11H/A (50 pin connwctor at front edge) Xylogics "Wizard 1" (50 pin connector at front edge) SDC-RXVZ1 "8202 FD Controller" (50 pin connector at front edge) Versatec LSI-11 P/P Interface (40 pin connector at front edge) Sigma Information Systems Assy 40100 - This board has one 40 + one 50 pin connector, and a place to populate another 40 pin - none are at the front edge. W951 "Flip Chip" - This board has places for various sized chips (most of them populated) with pins to wire-wrap connections between them - looks like some sort of prototyping board. + A couple of the little grant continuity boards. I don't expect this to be a short journy, but it should be interesting... Thanks in advance for any advice/tips.
