It depends on the technology. If it's something I'm familiar with, it doesn't take more than a proper sketch. But if it's something entirely foreign to me, I'd need at least a basic understanding of its purpose and design.
Basically, I'd need someone to me what it does and what its parts do.

Will this do?
( have. a fairly detailed write-up/analysis of the medical tricorder and what it can do/read/scan. it's as concise as he can make it (read: very) with as many poignant details as he thinks might be useful. )
Only one is needed. It will go to Andy. McCoy intends to teach her its use.
I'll see what I can do. If I don't reach out to you before the sun goes down, give me a nudge — sometimes I get a little too into things and forget time is a thing.
Dr. McCoy will have to speak to its accuracy, though. I can only assume whatever I make is functioning right.
Be mindful of yourself. We will likely begin seeing early asteroid impacts before too long — you should take care to work somewhere safe, or underground. The usefulness of your abilities cannot be overstated on this mission.

Useful.
What information do you require to be able to duplicate a piece of technology?
( like. schematics? diagrams??? )
