Re: Video converter board



Pinout of the Mac cable I am using, as requested. You'll probably have
to paste this into Notepad or something and use a fixed pitch font.
Note that it is not wired exactly right for a IIgs. If I can find
those DB-15 connectors I had, I'll wire the exact cable, although it
probably won't make any difference.

DB-15	VGA		Signal		Notes
-----	---		------		-----
1	6		Red Gnd
2	1		Red
3	13		Csync/Hsync	VGA labels this as either
4	4, 10, 11	Gnd		Not used on IIGS. VGA: 4=ID2, 10=Gnd, 11=ID1
5	2		Grn
6	7		Grn Gnd
7	NC
8	14		Vsync		Not used on IIgs
9	3		Blu
10	NC				Not used on IIgs
11	8		Blu Gnd		Not used on IIgs
12	NC
13	4, 10, 11	Gnd		Blu Gnd on IIGS. VGA: 4=ID2, 10=Gnd, 11=ID1
14	4, 10, 11	Gnd		Not used on IIGS. VGA: 4=ID2, 10=Gnd, 11=ID1
15	NC


NC: no pin present on the DB-15 side of the cable.

Lots of pictures, as requested. Forgive the camera shake. I probably
had too much caffeine today. Although the last picture isn't me. The
images are moving.
