DB-15 Apple iic ?

I have a "Multiple Scan 15" Apple DB15 display and I am considering getting a iic. Can I use that monitor with that computer? The things I keep reading are confusing me... something about signals? Thank you!

A comparison between the 15-pin connector of an Apple Multiple Scan 15 Display (page 38 in the user's guide at https://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/0/MA724/en_US/0308888AMS15UG.pdf) and the Apple IIc 15-pin video expansion port (see, for example, http://apple2.org.za/gswv/a2zine/faqs/Csa2MONITOR.html#022) would show that the signals are not compatible. The video expansion port is intended for an external adapter or modulator.


There is an alternative RCA-style video output for the connection of a composite monitor, or possibly an appropriate video recorder or television set.
