I've had a z3816a for a few years. I have never found anyone who had an 
actual manual for the unit, but the 58503B manual is pretty similar and 
seems to describe the serial commands ok. I've never seen anything 
specific for the z3816a about the circuits or theory of ops.

You may know this, but here's a good link to get you started:

I modified mine to convert the 19.6608 MHz outputs to 10 MHz square 
wave. Here is my page on that mod:
