Is that the version with analog video input (13W3 connector), or the
version with ECL video signaling (DE9 connector)?

The analog video version can be used with any color framebuffer as a
grayscale display. I did this back in the day with a CG6 and a
PeeCee... The B/W 13W3 connector pinout is identical to the color
version. The grayscale input is on the green channel.

If you need a ECL BWtwo I can dig my SBus bin. Most likely I have
one around somewhere. Shipping from Germany to the UK wouldn't be
expensive...
