I just picked up an Amiga Video Toaster (just the CPU
unit). Inside on the
left are the video toaster cards, but the two right-most slots have
full length
cards made by Digital Processing Systems Inc. The cards are daisy
chained to a connector on the motherboard. Each card has four BNC
connectors, a 5-pin DIN, an RJ-11 jack and a three-position switch on the
rear slot panel. The back side of each card is covered with a full-length
aluminum shield. The only identifying numbers I've found, besides the
FCC ID, is "743-770", then "PT2 REV-3, Made in Canada".
Good score. The boards sound like the TBC IV or TBC IV Plus.
The BNC's should be:
video in, video out, timing in, timing out.
The RJ-11 should be the serial connection and the 5-pin DIN
should be the S-video in. You could supposedly have up to four of
these boards daisychained together.
Of course, I could be wrong <g> That's what it sounds like though.
