Hi, After a bit of help again :-). I managed to pick up a Philips CM8833- II monitor today and was wondering if i needed to do anything special to get it to work? I did do a search of the forums but didn't find anything specific. Looking at the pinouts it would seem I should be able to use the cable I have for my Commodore 1084s, but when i use it the picture just rolls i.e not in sync. The cable I made for the 1084s is cabled as per the faq and i get a stable picture on my 1084s monitor...though red isnt very good. The only information i have found on the pinouts for the philips monitor are:- 1,2 - Ground 3 - Red 4 - Greem 5 - Blue 7 - Status RGB Any suggestions? Many thanksAndrew
Try this: Philips CM8833-II has quite similar specs to the monitor above (used in the same type of applications). Philips CM8833-II has a RGB connector which can accept both analogue and digital RGB signal. The RGB connector uses the following pinout: _____________
\ 5 4 3 2 1 / \_9_8_7_6_/ -Pin- -RGB TTL- -RGB Analogue- 1 Ground Ground 2 Ground Ground 3 Red Red 4 Green Green 5 Blue Blue 6 Intensity Fast Blanking 7 Not used Composite Sync 8 H. Sync H. Sync9 V. Sync V. Sync Some of the CM8833-II models have also a separate composite video input (RCA connector). I have also heard of special versions with only the digital TTL RGB input.
