Eugene,
You have a very nice Harris RF-7210A Mil Spec ALE (Automatic Link Establishment)  controller
with the latest software upgrade.  It was designed to work with a
RF-1310A exciter and RF-590A premium RX.  I understand that this
controller cost the Fed. about $15,000 to $20,000.  It started life as
a RF-7110 controller which is an obsolete early form of ALE called 
AUTOLINK which is Harris only.  It was them upgraded to a RF-7210A Mil
Spec AUTOLINK II called MIL-STD-188-141B.  Go to the following sites
for additional info.

(This site has manuals for the RF-7210 controller - very close to what you have)

Also visit the following site for a ham based PC driven view of ALE for emergency operations.

Bottom line - "you did good".  It is probably the best of the best external standalone ALE controllers.

Hope this helps,
Chuck
