J1 could be an unimplemented VMC header that was used on
the VCA (ISA bus) version. The MCA version can pull base
video over the AVE connector, and would not need J1.
U31 Acoustic delay line
Philips DL-750 361579-6
Tomáš Slavotínek:
That thing is a delay line. Acoustic delay line to
be more precise - commonly used in analog television (PAL) to
"store" the last scan line. It's made of glass and each of
the two cut corners has a piezo transducer on its edge.
One transducer is used to generate an acoustic wave, and
the other one is there to detect it. The wave bounces of
the edges and is being directed by the special pattern
created on the glass surface. It has to go all the way
through the "maze" to reach the other transducer. It will
get there but with a certain time delay, and that's what
we are after. Length of the delay depends on the physical
construction. It can act as a primitive memory with the appropriate
support circuitry...

Video Capture Adapter/A
- Enables user to capture high quality,
photo-like images
- Full frame capture from motion video in 1/30
seconds
- Images can be manipulated and used in high
quality presentations created with AVC
- Uses RGB, NTSC (Composite Video) and Y/C
(Super VHS)
- Captures 65,536 colors with a resolution of
640 X 480 X 16 bits
- Allows viewing live video during capture;
the card is not required for general image presentation
purposes
- 614Kb dual-ported video RAM buffer
- Image display modes live, memory, overlay,
transparent, pixel
The Video Capture Adapter/A can capture,
display and digitize high quality video images. It
supports Models 50, 55 SX, 60, 70 and 80 and is intended
for use with the AVC program.
Ed. Also supported by
Storyboard, Video IN, and Ultimedia Builder/2, among
others.
The adapter accepts video input signals through a multi-pin
connection on the adapter. The on-board processor
converts the analog signal to a digital format that can
be manipulated, compressed and stored by software for
later use. Sophisticated detailed image processing
techniques employed in the AVC Image Editor Components
enable the user to alter the characteristics of the
digitized image as outlined in Programming Announcement
289-333. The video adapter also contains output
connectors, for attachment to a monitor, which allow the
user to view live or captured images during the
capturing process. The adapter display capability
is not required to run presentations containing captured
images. The standard PS/2 hardware alone enables
the complete display of images for authoring and
presentation purposes.
The video adapter end-bracket contains a 20-pin
connector. The cable supports in/out jacks to RGB, NTSC
(Composite Video) and Y/C (Luminance/Chrominance)
devices. Y/C allows significantly higher quality
image than NTSC.
2. The NTSC Primary I/O Cable has ten separate cables
with RCA sockets on a 20-pin connector at the other end.
The VCA/A PAL adapter has a Primary I/O cable with
twelve separate cables which end in RCA sockets, with a
37-pin connector on the other end.
Enclosure on DB20 pin end of cable is JAE
D05-20H-S. JAE Connectors (Japan
Aviation Electronics Industry) D-sub connector shell
20P Crimp pins for 24-30 AWG, D05-20-26P
Ferrite choke over all individual cables, 1" OD, 1/2"
ID, 1" long, 1" from top of enclosure.
3. An S-Video Output Cable is
also used by the diagnostic program for a Y/C Wrap
Cable. This cable has an S-Connector at one end and two
RCA plugs at the other end. The GREEN RCA plug (8) is
the LUMA (Y) cable and the RED plug (9) is the CHROMA
(C) cable.

This cable is not included with the VCA/A PAL adapter
because it has two extra cables on the Primary I/O cable
which serve as LUMA and CHROMA output connections.
4. Three 75 Ohm male RCA
Terminators.
5. A short cable with male RCA
plugs at both ends which is used by diags in Wrap Tests
for RGB and Composite Video. (VCA/A PAL adapter uses two
of these M-M RCA cables.)
6. Diskette with diags,
related modules, @704E.ADF VCA/A (NTSC) and @70CE.ADF
VCA/A (PAL).

If your RGB monitor lacks 75 ohm term, place RCA
Terms on 2, 3, and 4. If RGB outputs aren't terminated,
Y/C and Comp Video outputs will distort image brightness.
