I need help with interfacing an IBM PC with Color/Graphics Monitor
Adapter (IBM's own) and a Sanyo DMC 6113 RGB monitor. Nobody here
seems to know how to do it, and some doubt it can be done. The
Sanyo calls for input signals at TTL level (4.5 V + or - 1.5 V),
and it has an 8-pin EIAJ connector with pins labelled as follows:
1. Cursor input 2. Red input 3. Green input 4. Blue input
5. Video ground 6. Sync ground 7. Horizontal drive or composite
sync 8. Vertical drive. As PC people know, I suppose, the C/GMA
has a 9-pin output, with pins labelled:
1. Ground 2. Ground 3. Red 4. Green 5. Blue 6. Intensity
7. Not used 8. Horizontal Drive 9. Vertical drive.
Some of the correspondences are obvious, but not all. Will a direct
cable connection work? How should the connectors be wired?
Please reply by mail, USNail, or phone. I doubt this is of general
interest, but if anyone else wants the answer, I will forward it on
request. Thanks in advance.
