All I have is the service manual of the tape drive including schematics...

Including schematics?!!

Can you imagine getting schematics for any modern kit??
I think this must be an encouragement that the interface spec may actually have been published...

I think the computer is too old

If you can find an active "enthusiast" group, it's amazing what stuff those people have!

eg, you can find the full VAX/VMS documentation set online...

and before the days of microsoft.

Eh??
I think that makes it more likely that useful, technical documentation was available - not less!

Today I will try to see the computer brand and search for documentation.

That's the spirit!
