I
believe it is supported in conjunction with a
70900A.
I won’t have
access to a large-format scanner for a month or so, so I
can’t scan the schematics. But I have scanned and will
send you the module manual via direct e-mail.
Thanks,
David

The 70590A is useless, except you have the military
softwares from Air Force

or Navy dedicated to some gear (F18...) but they need a lot
of non HP plug

ins (Comstron, Tern Technology...) under ITAR regulations.
It is not used by

the various MMS cal and repair softwares. It? is 1? worth.
You can only

dismantle it and get the rear connector as te first step to
build an

extender (not easy !)..
