I used to work for VG and I think I have some of the Docs on the PDP8 series of
boards. I still support the PDP11 series VG systems and last week upgraded 2
sites to RSX11M+ 4.6 for Y2K issues. I think I still have a complete "digital
scanner" that provided the A/D and scan start from that system.

Let me know what the 3 digit VG # is and I will see what I can dig up. They
were the acq and control for their magnet sector Mass Spectrometers
