Need help with a PVM?

Okay, so I thought about posting this in "Console Gaming", but this seems like a more appropriate place for it. Mods can move if needed.

I got my hands on a Security Camera monitor, and wanted to see if I could use it with my retro consoles, but I know nothing about this contraption, which could be B&W for all I know. I will post pics when I get a chance, but Here's what I do know:

Brand: ULTRAK

Model No.: KO-1242C

It as 4 camera inputs labelled CAM1-CAM4 with a 5th input for VCR. All 5 inputs use what looks like a phone plug (like, the plug for landline telephones/Dial-up, not Ethernet). Definitely not BNC or Breakout.

It powers on and attempts to scan all 4 CAM ports. I can't see anything on the screen, but it makes that good ol' ear piercing CRT squeal, so I think it works *knocks on wood*

I also have an RGB SCART cable for a Super Nintendo with sync-on-composite, but I can't find an adapter for this thing, or any information about how to make one, so I can't even test it.

My Google-fu has proven too weak for this one. Help me out homies!
