Nope, no manuals except a copy of the N* DOS manual and a
monitor manual I believe. The system has a CPU board, disk
controller and a 64K RAM board so I'd guess N*DOS should load
fine. Opened it back up but don't see any DIPs near the back.
There are a couple of switchs outside the case which are labeled
for different baud rates for the video and printer port.
