5071.1 | 23 pins I believe | SALEM::LEIMBERGER | Tue Sep 24 1991 07:05 | 7 | |
look again, the video input on the Amiga 2000, 5000 is 23 pins. I've made up several of these cables, but I used a cable that had the 3 bnc connectors on it already. I had to cut the connector down with a hacksaw(real hacking). I don't have any cables now, and can't remember the pinout. However a fair amount of people should have this info avalable. bill | |||||
5071.2 | alternative and sorry | YUPPY::MEADOWS | Chaz 'Joe Bugner' Meadows | Tue Sep 24 1991 07:11 | 4 |
I have a Amiga to monitor cable so I could possibly cut the monitor end off and connect 3 bnc plugs if thats possible, but would it work and what are the pin/cable connection for the bnc plugs (as to whether its a 23 or 25, I did not count just assumed, sorry) | |||||
5071.3 | Pin Configuration | TROOA::TONIZZO | Tue Sep 24 1991 09:52 | 4 | |
See note 4818.5 for the pin configuration for the vr241 to the amiga 23 pin port. Paul | |||||
5071.4 | another way | GLDOA::HILLARD | Tue Sep 24 1991 10:11 | 15 | |
The most simple answer is to use the original 23 pin to 9 pin amiga monitor cable. go to radio shack and buy yourself a 9 pin to 9 pin printer cable that will mate to the amiga 9 pin. They sell a 9 pin male to male or female to female. Cut the cable in half and put your bnc connectors on the bare end. This way if you ever do go to an Amiga monitor you havent destroyed the monitor cable.Get one that has the same gender on both ends in case you mess one half up you can use the other end and try again. My amiga manual has the pin outs of the 9 pin end that crossed easily to the bnc connectors. I also got the 9pin connector pin outs by asking the amiga dealer/service center where I bought the system. This does not answer your question directly but it is some food for thought when you do decide to build the thing. good luck Kim |
