I did notice, that MacII monitor is connected with RGB interface. And there seems to be these usual 4-linea: RGB and Sync. Can I connect this D-15 directly to these 4 coaxials. Does it work? Do I get smoke? Has someone tested this? Seppo Kallio kallio@tukki.jyu.fi -- kallio@tukki.jyu.fi Seppo Kallio phone Finland 941 292809 kallio@finjyu.bitnet University of Jyvaskyla Computing Centre

Do I get smoke? Has someone tested this? We've done it -- we hooked a mac video card to a digital monitor which took R, G, B and Sync inputs. So yes, it can be done, and has been done. Bon chance.

What value(s) did you have to set the scan rate in the Aquastar for to get a stable picture? The RGB output of the Apple video card is about twice (or more) that of a standard RGB/NTSC monitor. Thanks for your input. Awaiting your reply... Mel
