<Tony asks> You are sure that both the DE connectors have 15 pins. If one of
them had
9 pins, that could certainly be a digital input.
<Dave replies> Yes, I triple checked it, there are definitely (2) of the 15
pin connectors and they are black.

>>> <Dave says> switch says something
different. The first says the number
8, the second

PAS", the third "32". To me it doesn't make sense.
For
<Tony says> This sounds like 3 bits (8 colours), 4 bits (16 colours,
SATurated or
PAStel), or 5 bits (32 colours). Several machiens used 3 or 4 bit digital
colour outputs. I've never come
across a 5 bit output, though.
<Dave replies> Ummm... I did make one mistake, and that is that the final
pair of DIP switches are labled "64", rather than 32. The rest are exactly
as I stated. Also the monitor does appear to be for the US market and
manufactured in Dec 1985. It says 220V-240V by the plug, but it says both
the 100V-120V and the 220V-240V on the large label on the back. I am
wondering if it will work on 110V? The problem is that I do not see a
switch to change from 110 to 220, like some other devices have. I don't
have 220V access here. I can email you a picture of the monitor connections,
if that would help.
