Here you go:

pirsoft-dsl-dropzone.de/scanner-technical.pdf

latex+svg source:
pirsoft-dsl-dropzone.de/scanner-technical.tar.bz2

This is by far not complete. I think i have all major areas mentioned,
but a lot of detail is missing.

A static pdf is not that good for this information. I am thinking of
setting up a wiki. That is easier to edit, add more information and link to.
