I've looked at that manual before posting, and it does not have much to work
out from.  All the names of the signals are different.

Except I think that the emphasis needs to be on the "-SA" suffix,
as the section does refer to the LPV11 with no suffix.

As the wiring given is for a dataproducts, the correct hookup for
a centronics interface would have to be worked out, but they are
very similar.

A real manual would, of course, completely obviate the problem.
