Help with AVL cricket

[Pharaday]

Here is an AVL cricket. I'm told it does stuff with music and lights. But I cannot find an instruction manual ANYWHERE. Can anyone tell me how to use this thing? I know these pics are blurry, I'll describe the port/control labels to you left to right top to bottom. I don't have whatever plugs into the remote jack. Back: timer switch off slow fast, tape in out (AV jacks), power (lol 3.5mm jack), remote (WEIRD jack), B - project -A (2 cables with weird 7 pin plug). Front: LAMPS off normal align, MODE manual auto play, A A+B B, DISSOLVE TIME cut max, freeze, action. Any help would be appreciated in getting this thing to do what it does. Sorry for no paragraphs.

This site offers a manual.

Can you link me to the actual manual? I've already searched all over that website. Surely you don't mean CALL them...?

Since they offer the manual for sale I doubt they'd make an online copy freely available .

Ok, I knew all that from 3 mins in Google. Lol if 3 mins on google can solve my issue, you guys never hear about it. then I'm back to my original request: can anyone TELL me how I can make this thing do what it's made to do?

A little late to reply here but... the AVL cricket is a SLIDE PROJECTOR dissolve. Plug in two slide projectors and the Cricket will enable a slideshow using both of them. Nothing to do with lights, etc. The "tape in and out" is to record the tones that make cues happen along with a soundtrack.
