well, here goes again (last one didn't seem to make it out, even
to my own site :-?
I'm currently running an A1000 system and hope to add an
A2500/30 in a few days. Since my hardware docs are a little out
of date (Aug 1985), could some kind soul check if the RGB-analog
out pin-outs on the A2000 are the same as those for the A1000
reproduced below? It would sure make life easier making up
a cable for this thing. We want to hook it up to a SONY PVM1342q
monitor (kinda neat, does NTSC, PAL, SECAM, NTSC4.43, Y/C,
digital RGB, **AND** analog RGB; .25mm aperture grille pitch
[better than the sony cpd1201 we're running now] and SMPTE type C
phosphors). This monitor takes separate BNC connectors for
analog -red, -green, -blue (0.7V p-p), and sync (2.0-8.0 V p-p,
negative, 75 Ohms or high impedance auto termination).
I wouldn't think it would be too hard to hook this up to the
A2000, but looking over the sync-in specs again, I'm not sure.
BTW, which of the Amiga sync pins (hsync, vsync, or csync) needs
to be hooked up to the sync input on the monitor, or is it needed?
(it would be a cheaper cable w/o the sync line, but I don't
want to skimp.)
Anyway, here's what I have on the A1000 RGB pin-outs, and it
seems to match with the info on the cpd1201 input pins.
Thanks. replies prefered by email

Yes the A2000 RGB port is identical to the A1000. Use the Analog RGB outputs and the CSYNC* output, with a GND line for each. I've used this to hook 1000's and 500's up to NEC Multisync's and they work fine.
