No, the pin out was easy, it finding information on spliting the H sync
and V sync off of the green signal. So I can use a standard VGA monitor
on a computer that's video is a sync on green output.
i.e. Apollo 9000/710 workstation --> Sony VGA monitor.
sync on green --> seperate H sync and V sync lines.
Thanks for the thought. :-)
