[comp.terminals] looking for...

Does anybody have the user manual for a Televideo 970?
Or at least copy the pages that list the escape sequences?

The ADDS Regent that I was using on my CP/M IMSAI died, and a friend gave me
the '970.  Currently I'm using it in VT52 mode but I'd like to configure the
various software packages to use it in native mode.

Lastly, there's a rear panel knockout labeled "RS422", and the circuit board
in that area is missing some components.  Does anybody have any idea what
goes there?  If this beast can transfer data faster than 9600 baud, I'd like
to.  Years ago I had a video board that I had whipped up that transferred
data from the IMSAI in 8-bit paralell at about 4kbytes/sec and going back
to 9600 was a real drag.  Yes, I know the '970 will do 19.2, but I've got
to modify the IMSAI serial card to handle it.  The setup screen has RS-422
baud rates of 2400, 4800, 9600, 19.2, 38.4, 76.8, 153.6, and 307.2kb!  Would
be nice to be able to use it! (Or even jumper the baud rate gen over to the
main serial port...)
