Thanks to Josef Schüle for the solution.

The AlphaServer SC45 PDF docs are not found on-line. They are part of the
ALPHA_SCV26_EAGLE patch kit. I downloaded the kit and extracted the PDF
files. I still don't understand why they are not available on the HP docs
site as individual files. It would be much easier to access.

Below are the details of the patch kit from the HP ITRC site.
