Video Processor PCB - Inputs
RGBHV VIC 1,2, & 3 - External image signals from the VICs for red, green, and blue.
/SEL_VIC - input signal from the RGB VIC used to select the input source from VIC #1.
RGB_OVER - from the System Controller PCB, the Menu overlays and internal test patterns for red, green, and blue.
OVERLAY - from the System Controller PCB, switches between internal and external sources.
CLAMP - Pulse signal from the Raster Timing Generator PCB, tells the Video Processor PCB the timing and duration of the DC Restore.
BLANKING - Pulse signal from the Raster Timing Generator PCB, it tells the Video Processor PCB the blanking interval during the scan.
RGB_THRESH - Threshold correction information for red, green, or blue from the System Controller PCB. Real time data at
RGB_SENS - Sensitivity correction information for red, green or blue from the System Controller PCB. Real time data at
RGB_BEAM - sense signal proportional to the cathode current averaged over several horizontal lines in the red, green, or blue CRT. The voltage level is + mV/mA.
/VA_OK - signal from the Video Amplifier PCB telling the Video Processor PCB the Video Amplifier PCB is receiving red, green, and blue deflections voltages from the Horizontal Vertical Deflection PCB.
IIC_DATA - IIC data line.
IIC_CLK - IIC clock line. Unidirectional clock line for control of synchronous data transfer over IIC bus.
