- Hmm, your reply is very confusing Roger... and i'm using the setup!!!
-
- All you need to do is to use the cable that goes to the monitors
- 9 pin D connector, which, I believe, on the other end of it, has
- the 23 pin connector to go into an Amiga.
-
- I guess all you need to do is chop off the Amiga 23-pin D connector,
- and wire up a plug for the ST/E
-
- The Monitor itself, can run in digital or analog RGB mode, it has a
- switch on the back of it for that, *only the one input socket*
-
- It also has an RCA video input, and a chroma one as well, and
- of course, the audio RCA jack/s.
- Neat for hooking your video into to watch TV on your monitor!!! :-)
