Accidentally sent before proofreading 😶 VFD pinouts are easy to reverse engineer, find the cathode pins by checking for ones with continuity (usually the ones at the outer edges), you can find the heater voltage by using a buck converter and raising the voltage to a bit under where it starts to visibly glow, then map out the anodes and grids with 12v or so, usually displays like with that one with lots of characters are muxed at a higher voltage in operation.
