[comp.sys.apple] HELP NEEDED: Apple ][c to Amdec Color-II RGB monitor

halp@TCGOULD.TN.CORNELL.EDU ("Bruce P. Halpern") (09/11/87)

I would like to connect my Apple IIc (up-to-date ROMS, ca. 384K RAM [Apple]
if that matters) to an Amdec Color-II RGB monitor. The Amdec manual states 
that it wants RGB separated, TTL level positive input. The IIc technical 
manual states that certain of its special video port (designed for Apple 
color monitor and Apple LCD screen [I use the latter]) outputs must be 
buffered within 4 inches of the port.

Video-7 made (?makes?) a Apple ][c to Apple color monitor connector which 
I might be able to buy for ca. $60. Its output plug doesn't make the video 
input connector of the Amdec Color-II, but that could be rewired if I had 
sufficient information. The Amdec manual *does* indicate the appropriate 
input to each of its pins. However, the Video-7 manual give no wiring info 
for its cable.

Therefore: a) Will the Video-7 adapter work is it can be connected?
           b) Is there a better (if not cheaper) way?
        
I would appreciate input from anyone with relevant experience or knowledge.
