Help identify graphics card/tuner thing

[slk486]

I just received my "new" X68000, which came with an extra card/module from Fujitsu.
It has an RGB out, S-vid in, video in, vhf/uhf, and audio in.

Some sort of genlock?

I don't recognize that description.  No photos?  Part numbers?  Anything?

Actually, looking at it and sizing it up, it doesn't look like it belongs in an X68000 at all

Hi Slk486 !

It's a video card for FM-Towns.

Yes, confirmed, it's a graphic card for FM-TOWNS pc.It's the FMT-416 model, the same I have.It's full of SMD electrolytic capacitors!

[H68k]

The X68k's expansion boards use card edge connectors (like the PC98 series C-bus slots) while the X68k and PC98 card edges and slots look the same.. what each pin is used for on the connectors, is quite different from each other, The X68k uses a modified ISA bus... while the PC98 uses a propitiatory standard developed by NEC...

Trying to use ether in each machine it was not intended for, may damage the expansion board and/or release the 'magic' smoke after a component gets a bit to higher voltage applied to a pin it shouldn't have...

Are you trying to tell me I can't just shove it in there and have it work, then?

[eidis]

Well, sort of. Because X68000 and FM-Towns have different expansion slots, different pinouts and different architecture.

I was joking 

It's rather obvious, that a graphics card for another system won't work
