HP-1600A Manual... (slightly OT)

Hi folks,

I'm looking for either an HP-1600A manual, or for some kind soul
to give me a few pointers on how to use the 1600. I got it without
the manual; but I do have all the probes.

My main questions are:

        a) what do the "Qualifier" switches do?
        b) how do they relate, if at all, to the "Trigger Word / Map
           Locator" switches?
        c) how do I trigger on various patterns (if I can)?
        d) some explanation of the "Trigger Mode", "Sample Mode",
           "Table", and "Map" switches.
        e) any other general operating tips would be appreciated.

I'm posting to this list because I figure a few people out there use
these things for their antique computer collections; I certainly plan
to use mine to restore my PDP-12 :-)

I intend on using it with a "clothes-pin"-type 14 and 16 pin adaptor
to check on the operating state of various ICs...

Cheers, and thanks in advance,
-RK
