MacResQ had a few of these in stock and as long as I was ordering 
some of their SCSI drives during the WD special, I ordered one of 
those as well.

It's a video card that installs in the Plus using a CPU clip. 
According to the description on MacResQ's site and the Intallation 
Manual, it is supposed to work with VGA, Mac (DB15) and old FPD/TTL 
monitors which used the DB9 connector and it is supposed to include 
connectors for all three.

However, the version I received only includes the connector for the 
Full Page Display and TTL displays.  It did not include the other 
two.   I can see the positions for the connections on the video board 
but I'm not sure what the pinout would be, plus it looks like there 
might be two resistors that are missing.

So I have a few questions.

1)  Does anyone have a "full" model of the Lapis DisplayServer?   I 
could tell what I need if someone was willing to examine one of the 
cards for me or even scan an image of it--though a scan might not 
show the resistor value clearly.

2)  Can a TTL display output be easily converted to VGA?  It looks 
like the voltage level is different on one of the signals.

BTW, MacResQ was first class about it.  They returned my call today, 
ran out to their stock area and picked up the other two examples of 
the card which they have to see if either of them was the full card 
(weren't) and asked me what they could do.   I settled on having them 
send me another one.  I know glutton for punishment.  But it 
shouldn't be difficult to modify this card if I can just get the info 
I need.

I remember someone posting about a Mac card scanned image collection. 
Maybe that would have the info?  Actually, I tried to offer them a 
couple of scans but my email bounced.  Anyone remember the URL to it?

Thanks for any help or leads.
