All,
I've been digging through my pile of stuff again and figured that my
old HP98789A 17" (Sony) monitor might be a good match my my beige Mac
G3.
Okay, my next step is to wire up an adapter. The HP is RGB (3 BNC)
to sync-on-green. I read that the Power Macs don't support SOG, so I
need to combine both the HSYNC and VSYNC with green (a couple of
74HCxx gates should do that; I can steal power from the sync
signals). Otherwise, it's connect pin 4 to 7 (S0 to S1) on the Mac
video connector to signal that I want "RGB 1024x768".
Do I have this right? Does anyone have anything to add before I take
out my soldering iron?
Cheers,
Chuck
