I have got a VGA card for a friendd who have a Multisync monitor. However, his monitor (as I remember it correctly) has a 9 pin connector; the card on the other had expects a 15 pin connector for its VGA output. Is there an adapter plug that which will make this conversion? If so where can I obtain one? Does anyone have such adapter that they are not using it? (I heard that NEC ships their monitors with such adapters). If I want to do this conversion myself, would it be a simple rearranging of the the pins? If so, does anyone know the pin conversion/layout from 9 to 15? Thanks in advance. Scott.

What you would need would be the specs for the plug on the monitor so that you could match the pins. I know my Sony 1304 only has 9 pins, and I paid the $20 when I bought it for a VGA cable to go with it. It did the conversion from 9-15 pins.

I am using the following wiring without trouble for about 2 years now. It connects a NEC Multisync II to a ET4000 VGA. 1 ---------------------------------------- 1 ,--------------- 2 2 ------------------------' ,------------- 3 E | ,-------+--- 4 T N 3 --------------------------' | | 5 | +--- 6 - E 4 --------------------------- | ----+ +--- 7 | | +--- 8 4 C 5 --------------------------- | -+ | | 9 0 | | | +--- 10 0 6 ---+------------------------' | | `--- 11 0 | | | 12 7 ---+ | `----- 13 | `-------- 14 8 ---+ 15 For best results, use shielded cable and don't make it longer than about 5 ft. Sample of reading: NEC-3 to ET-4000-3 NEC-4 to ET-4000-13 etc. Happy soldering, Wolfgang -- siebeck@infoac.rmi.de (Wolfgang Siebeck)
