Hi. I just bought an old Heathkit 19 terminal (already built :-), and all the documentation I have is two hand-written pages of notes from the previous owner which document the meanings of various settings for "switches S401 and S402". Anyway, I need two pieces of info: (1) does anyone know where I can get even a cruddy xerographic copy of the H19/Z19 reference manual. Basically, I want to know about the various escape sequences that cause the terminal to behave in different ways. ANSI these guys are not! :-) (2) with regard to these switches S401 and S402, presumably they are inside the terminal somewhere. Can anyone describe the correct way to open the case? The person I bought the thing from is not th original owner and has no clue. I tried a few approaches, but none seemed like the were The Right Thing to do (you can only push on a piece so hard before you get to the point that it feels like something is going to break), so I'm stuck. People who built the H19 kit or who have docs are good candidates for this one. Anyway, that's what I need. Anyone who can help me gets my deepest gratitude. Thanks much!
