-H/V sync needs to be figured out (by following the wires or with an oscilloscope). The wires all go to U54 (opamp input) on PK00492 (the scanning board). This opamp is used to read back data from the EK9 connector. This connector allows for chaining scan/detector though the BCX x-ray unit. There might be signal integrity issues with tapping the sync data like this, we'll see.+H/V sync needs to be figured out (by following the wires or with an oscilloscope).

 +H/V sync values are ramps +/- 5V (opamps are supplied +/- 8V).
