Refer to Appendix B: Technical information for additional
signals offered through the Expanded video I/O connector.
A video source, such as a camera, can also be attached to the
video input connector. It is important that when connecting a
video source to the video input connector, you do not connect an
additional video source to the VID_IN1 pin on the expanded
video I/O connector. The video input connector is connected to
the VID_IN1 line without a multiplexer. The signal path for
these connectors is illustrated in the block diagram at the
beginning of Chapter 1.
