Control Console — Houses the keyboards and all electronics
for program selection and processing. All electronics in the
console (digital, RF oscillator/modulator and audio circuits)

is transferred to the Selector Switch Unit through a single
coaxial cable. This same cable carries DC power from the
Selector Switch Unit to the console to operate the electronics.
Selector Switch Unit — Forms the interface between the
Control Console, the Studio II Power Supply Unit, the TV receiving antenna and the TV receiver. A

the Studio II or to the receiver's antenna system. This switch
also serves as the game's on/off switch.
Power Supply Unit - A sealed, 120 VAC to 9 VDC adapter
with a
ture (3mm) phone jack on the Switch Selector Unit. The 9
VDC is coupled to the game's
