The monitor isn't compatible with a Mac or PC either.
If it is a digital RGB monitor for a IIe, it might be usable with a
CGA display on a PC (with an appropriate cable), but it won't work
with EGA, VGA or later. It won't work with a Mac at all. It can also
be used with an Apple III or a IIc (a special adaptor is required).
If it is an analog RGB monitor for a IIgs, it isn't compatible with
any Mac or PC. It might work on an Amiga, or with other computers
that use an analog RGB monitor at television frequencies (15 kHz
horizontal scan rate, 200 lines vertical resolution or 400 lines with
interlace).
What is the part number (on the label on the back)? The IIgs monitor
is A2M6014X.
