Here is what I have:
https://www.vintagecomputer.net/simh/sds/sds_940_doc.pdf
But it's for the Sigma 940 specifically, which is almost 10 years too old.
I don't know if there are enough similarities between the two systems,
maybe a useful peripheral config. The 940 was famous for time sharing in
1966...Hopefully you can use this as a starting point.
