I'm looking for a manual for a Burle TC3910 time-lapse video recorder.
 I'd of course prefer a manual that is online and free, but would
accept a way to order the manual.  I can't even find a web site for
the manufacturer.  I have it running to the point that it seems to be
recording, but I haven't been able to play back what's on the tape.

Hello.

Burle now operates under the name Philips CSI [
http://www.philipscsi.com/ ]

I called their customer service number at (800) 326-3270 and spoke to
a representative named Melissa. She indicated that the instruction
manual for the TC3910 is still available and could be sent to you by
mail or fax.

Simply call (800) 326-3270 and tell the operator that you'd like to
speak with Melissa in customer service. She'll get the manual to you
right way.

I hope this helps.

That's exactly the type of answer that I was hoping for!

Thank you for the tip.
