Hi! Perhaps somebody can help me. I have a monochrome monitor for an early AT&T PC6300, and my laptop needs such a monitor when it is at home. My kids would use it for wordprocessing, and not fight over the PC6300 which now has a color monitor. I assume that a powersupply is needed and some circuit adaption. The laptop, a Dataview SPARK, has a RGB jack and a composite jack for output to an external monitor. I even have the circuit diagram for the monochrome monitor. What I need is what signals go into the AT&T pins so I can make an adapter box. Has anybody tweeked the AT&T monitor to accept either composite or RGB input? I don't have access to any test equipment beyond just a volt meter. I am somewhat reluctant to fry either the Laptop or the monitor by a bad guess at interfacing. Does anybody know how to make this interface? Thanks. Ed Gauss IEX 125 Half Mile Road Red Bank, NJ 07701 (201) 747-4700 ticnj!gauss@iex.com Who can help be
