Hi everyone. First time that I really need help here. [Frown]

Just acquired a rarely used Fujicascope MX50 dual8 projector at a very reasonable price. After sorting some issues (stuck motor/loose belt/etc.) now it works smooth as it supposed to.

 -

But my real intention is to use it for real time telecine with my camcorder,utilizing its pulse-sync functionality. It is supposed to be as simple as injecting an audio square wave of desired frequency (16.67Hz in this case) into its "sync" input socket. The projector should stay fixed at that speed,simple as that.

 -  -

The real problem is how? It came with no instruction book of course. [Frown] Looking at its sync input socket,I still can't figure out which wire is used for sync input?

 -  -

Worse yet,it did looked like a DIN socket,but it isn't.
I sure don't want to make a wild guess,with fear of blowing its old&delicate electronics. [Eek!]
Anyone ever had some experience syncing your Fujicascope projector with external pulse? Your info will be more than valuable to me. Thanks!
