If the Commodore 2002 has the same pinout as the Commodore 1084 then
you can connect the analog RGB of a IIgs to the 2002 with its switch
in the analog position.  The only trick to this, which is what I had
to do to get a 1084 to work with my IIgs, is to fix the composite sync
signal level.  I just threw a 75 ohm resistor between the composite
sync and ground and it worked for me.

Any Apple II should be able to connect to the 2002 by using the
composite video input.  If you don't get a picture, you might want to
look for a switch that changes between RGB and Composite but I'm just
guessing here.
