I recently picked this up, used. It seems to be working, and came with an
Operators Manual which doesn't seem to be completely accurate. I think the
programmer may have been upgraded over the years and no longer agrees with
the original documentation.

From what I can tell, the Family/Pinout codes for this can be entered using
the letters [A..Z] and numbers [0..9]. There is a list of them in the
Operators manual, but there are several penciled-in additions to the list.
This makes me suspect a firmware upgrade may have added additional devices
that aren't covered. I found a device Family/Pinout code list on
ftp.dataio.com that looks like they may have used the same codes on more
than one programmer. Does it seem like a safe guess that any codes from the
list that this thing will allow me to input are probably correct?

There are several of the "Selection" features listed in the operators guide
that don't work. One that does is the "configuration" report, which says
that I have 64K RAM and firmware v13.1. It looks like there might have been
a v14.4 firmware. Anybody have images of the ROMs for this?
