Triac PC Electrical Drawings

Hi,
Does anyone have electrical drawings for a Triac PC manufactured in 2000. I have downloaded a couple from 1999, they are numbered TR6-m01 and TR6-m11 so presume the series runs from TR6-m01 up. Any help would be appreciated.

many thanks

OK, Thanks for that, have downloaded manual, will have a read. Meanwhile I have worked out most keypresses but I cannot find the spindle start key? Any ideas, perhaps a combination of keys.

Thanks again

LED status is the same as original post, it was only the .GO file that needed editing. I do not have the Desktop Tutor Keypad and am slowly working out the key mapping for QWERTY, has anyone worked this out already?

I have tried adjusting the pot and I can get the spindle turning at a fixed speed from 0-max but only by adjusting this pot I have no software control apart from stop and start. The speed override has no effect either.
