- O.K. before you all decry me for being a skinflint - I'm a poor student.
-
- I was recently given a CPC464 with a colour monitor - whoopee.
-
- However, I distinctly remember a friend of mine had his A500 coupled up to
- one of these babies, with quite reasonable results.
-
- Now looking at the connector on the 464, it has 6 pins as detailed below
-
- 1 RED
- 2 GREEN
- 3 BLUE
- 4 SYNC
- 5 GND
- 6 LUM
-
- Looking at my handy A1200 Users guide, I have 23 pins.
-
- Assuming I have an analog monitor, pins 3,4,5 are RGB, 10 is COMP SYNC
- and 16-20 are VIDEO GND, but no luminescence...
-
- Should I be using Digital Intensity with DR,DG,DB or do I need some sort
- of fiddle to result in a LUMinence line?
-
- Any help would be appreciated.
-
- Thankyou all very much..
-
- Richard.
