APG-59/IP-825D Restoration

Good Day all, 

Im Andy , a new member to the forum.Im currently in yhe process of restoring An APG-59/IP-825D (along with a few other parts ) from an F-4J i acquired but ive hit a roadblock. While ive tested some of the pins with a multimeter for resistance and everything is alive, im not sure as to which pin does what and which multi pin connector is VDC and VAC. Looking for anybody who worked on phantom avionics and If anybody has maintenance manuals that Would be greatly appreciated .. Short term goal is to get it to simulate a radar sweep and different modes and the long term goal is to get it to work with the DCS F-4 and actually recieve and display data from the planes radar  inside the game. Ive scoured the internet for all and any CRT military radar restorations and ive been to air Museums around the US (Im a pilot by trade) and ive never seen a functional CRT radar display so this is a hell of a project ,

Many Thanks , Andy
