You're not supposed to view them in your web
browser.
It should work fine that way, assuming the pdf plugin is sending the
right html commands to the web server. I see people reading docs this
way all the time.
To answer the original question, the WCS card is documented in the
1000 M/E/F Engineering Reference

That's what I thought! But I tried saving the files directly and it
worked MUCH better. I could save an 18 Mb file in a couple of minutes that
way. Using Acrobat I couldn't even get one page in the same time. I tried
to open and save a 9Mb file last week and it ran for over 2 1/2 hours and
only got about 1/4 of the file before a power glitch crashed the computer.
No idea why Acrobat slows things down so much. It doesn't seem to be a
problem on small files but the time seems to go up exponentally with file
size.

I couldn't find a specific docs for it but I thought it might be in the
Engineering Reference. I downloaded it this afternoon but haven't had a
chance to look through it yet.
Thanks,

For the best info on this board, see the following manuals:
HP1000 M/E/F-Series Firmware Installation and Service Manual 12791-90001.
This gives enough detail to write a device driver for the board.
Also...
HP21MX E-series Computer Microprogramming reference manual
So you know what to put into that WCS board!
HP-IPL/OS will be supporting the WCS soon. The driver is trivial, but
the microassembler
is another story, I really need a file system to implement this properly.
