I can't remember if the 3290 has the ability to modify the controller like the 3270's did, plug the coax or twisted pair into port 0 and use the SETUP or control key to get into setup / diagnose mode?

I come seeking the wisdom of gurus. Please forgive any breach of protocol. I'm looking for some assistance with some older iron, a 3290 plasma terminal. I have it partially functional, connected to a 3174, and can get into the terminal's setup panels, but those panels are essentially useless without documentation. I'm not getting any sessions through the 3174 to the 3290, so something is wrong somewhere. Other terminals connected to the same 3174 reach hosts just fine. It's my hope that I'll be able to figure it out once I find the appropriate documentation. I believe the setup panels are documented in publication GA23-0241, which doesn't appear to be available online anywhere. Would anyone here have a copy of that manual, or any other relevant material, on a dusty bookshelf? Or would anyone with knowledge of 3290+3174 configuration be willing to give me some assistance? Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
