You'll note on bitsavers there is almost no documentation on 3rd party VME
boards outside of Motorola. They were so

Megatek started out making caligraphic displays for DG systems
those evolved into the Wizzard series. I have one with a Unibus
interface.
They switched to raster in the late 70s eventually moving to
standalone 3D color
This is a VME board with 3D acceleration, and RGB out.
There is no terminal for it.

Megatek built graphics terminals and I think plotters that were used in
CAD shops. Prime used them with some of their CAD offerings. Megatek
also did boards for at least DG, -11, Modcomp systems, maybe others. In
fact,
I picked up a pair (1 set) of these very neat old graphics boards.
Alas I have no idea what they are or if there is hope of using them. One is
a dual
slot 9U VME board that has gobs of video ram all over it, including a board
labeled Z buffer.
The only output are (3) BNC connectors
(R,G, and B)
