The colorswitch is a CGA-to-analog RGB converter plus a switcher.
You plug the PCT's CGA output into the colorswitch and then
the colorswitch into the IIGS video port.  The monitor plugs into
the colorswitch.

The colorswitch converts CGA to analog RGB.  It also switches
between the PCT video and the IIGS video and thus lets you
have two sources to one RGB monitor.
