A display system is disclosed for receiving video data from a character generator and for applying that data to a beam index tube. The system includes a memory for storing data received from the character generator and for outputting the stored data in response to an index clock signal which is derived from a conventional index signal generated by the tube. Output circuitry receives the data from the memory and outputs that data to the tube at the proper times for illuminating phosphors within the tube. The preferred embodiment also drives the tube's beam current in a manner which develops a video image having improved contrast.
