Is there an IDS manual for this translator module? Could not find one.

No, but Bill Wickes (author of the Translator) also wrote the "HP 82490A HP-41 Translator Pac Programmer's Toolkit" available at the time from HP's User Library Program, which is available here:

https://literature.hpcalc.org/items/1415

It is definitely NOT as detailed as the IDS and contains no source listing, but it will be a big help if you want to get into low-level details. Note that the toolkit itself (a .zip file with the utilities) is also provided towards the bottom.
