	In the process of trying to explain the Amiga hardware and 
interfacing it with the CMI VI500 video encoder to the people at 
Radio Shack (I am trying to get the appropriate cables for dubbing),
I noticed something strange. I have the book "Introduction to the 
Commodore AMIGA 2000" which came with my computer. On page 2-4 
there is a section called Location of Connectors. I note the video
port, parallel port, external disk port, serial port, and 2 audio ports.
HOWEVER, when I look on the back of MY AMIGA 2000, there is an ADDITIONAL
port labelled Mono Video. This in NOT covered in my manual. What is it?
Is this a monochrome video output? If so, how does it come into play with
my video encoder?


Thanks,
