Vivitar Zoom Thyristor 5200

[Perry Way]

I bought a used Minolta that came with a Vivitar Zoom Thyristor 5200 flash. It's a nice unit. Works very well. Also very bright and it has adjustments to it for F-stop and ISO and I believe this is TTL metering and is dedicated, but.... heck if I know what all the buttons do. I am looking for a user manual or instruction manual. I've already Googled this ad nauseum the last few days. Thought it was possible to find anything on the internet! grrr..

Does anyone have one of these units and can provide some basic information on how to operate it? Or better yet, does anyone know where I can download a manual? I found a listing on eBay, another unit WITH a user manual. It's kind of cheep.. nobody's bid on it yet. But honestly I don't... well.. I've been eyeballin' other things besides flash units. But, maybe I ought to buy this one on eBay, then photocopy the manual then turn around and sell it again?

Well, I'm hoping for resources here...
