[Frameworks] Moviola optical reader conversion

[Jeff Kreines]

I think signal is on the 4-pin connector and power is on the coaxial. Power probably needs to be clean DC so you don't get any hum from the lamp. Unfortunately the Moviola amps are desirable for guitar amps so always are expensive on eBay.

I think they are meant to attach to a moviola squawk box with two connections: one 4 pin connector, presumably for power, and a coaxial connector, presumably for signal. I'm interested in trying to convert them to output to a 1/4" jack or something similarly ubiquitous, which I suppose will require a separate power supply for the exciter lamp.
