The connector at the monitor is a female 9pin D-Sub. +-----+----------------+-------------------------------------------+ | Pin | Analog: | Digital: | | no. | | 8 colors | 16 colors | 64 colors | | | | | | | | 1 | Red | Gnd | Gnd | Gnd | | 2 | Green/C Sync | ----- | ----- | Secondary Red | | 3 | Blue | Red | Red | Primary Red | | 4 | H/C Sync | Green | Green | Primary Green | | 5 | V Sync | Blue | Blue | Primary Blue | | 6 | Gnd | ----- | Intensity | Secondary Green | | 7 | Gnd | C Sync* | C Sync* | Secondary Blue | | 8 | Gnd | H Sync | H Sync | H Sync | | 9 | Gnd | V Sync | V Sync | V Sync | | | | | +-----+----------------+-------------------------------------------+ "-----" means No Connection (can also be ground) Green/C means composite sync on green H/C Sync means horizontal or composite sync *some manuals do not show this. Officially it supports CGA, EGA and VGA. The monitor works in MDA mode too, but you may need to switch it to 16 colors, and flip on TXT mode. The maximum resolution supported is 800x560. However they will work at 800x600. Wiring: To run in MDA/CGA mode just use a straight thru cable and set for 16 color: Pin Digital no. 16 color mode MDA: CGA: 1 Gnd ------------------------------- Gnd ------------- Gnd 2 N/C ------------------------------- Gnd ------------- Gnd 3 Red ------------------------------- N/C ------------- Red 4 Green ----------------------------- N/C ------------- Green 5 Blue ------------------------------ N/C ------------- Blue 6 Intensity ------------------------- Intensity ------- Intensity 7 C Sync*---------------------------- Video ----------- Reserved 8 H Sync ---------------------------- H Sync ---------- H Sync 9 V Sync ---------------------------- V Sync ---------- V Sync To run in EGA mode just use a straight thru cable and set for 64 color: Pin Digital no. 64 color mode EGA 1 Gnd ------------------------------- Gnd 2 Secondary Red --------------------- Secondary Red (Intensity) 3 Primary Red ----------------------- Primary Red 4 Primary Green --------------------- Primary Green 5 Primary Blue ---------------------- Primary Blue 6 Secondary Green ------------------- Secondary Green (Intensity) 7 Secondary Blue -------------------- Secondary Blue (Intensity) 8 H Sync ---------------------------- H Sync 9 V Sync ---------------------------- V Sync The Amiga uses a 23pin D-sub connector.
