See my previous post. There are instructions to build a T102 compatible cable at least 3 different ways.
1 - Effortless, no building at all, just buy two parts and stick them together. The downside of that one is the result is not polarity keyed. It's still easy to get it right though. The DVI end is polarity keyed, and then just keep the cable flat. Don't flip it over between the DVI and the T102. 2 - One that is fully polarity keyed on both ends. Build requires twisting the wires one one end or the other before crimping, and the male connector for the computer end will only fit in a T102, not a T200, simply because of the size of the plastic shell. 3 - One that is fully polarity keyed on both ends, and fits in both a T102 and a T200, and requires no seperating and twisting 20 pairs of wires, but does require soldering two connectors back to back, and the computer end has no strain relief for the ribbon cable crimp, so you have to be careful never to pull on the cable to unplug it, always grab the connector to unplug. There are links to buy all the odd parts. http://tandy.wiki/Disk/Video_Interface:_Cable -- bkw On Sat, Jun 2, 2018, 7:18 PM Josh Malone <[email protected]> wrote: > I've never built one before but I could take a stab at it if there are > instructions. > > On Sat, Jun 2, 2018, 5:27 PM Randall Kindig <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> So, I take it no one on this list builds the M102 DVI cables? >> >> Shoot. >> >> Thanks >> >> Randy >> >> On May 28, 2018, at 10:47 PM, Randall Kindig <[email protected]> >> wrote: >> >> Yeah, I’m not much for building these myself. >> >> Does anyone have one? >> >> Thanks >> >> Randy >> >> On May 27, 2018, at 4:23 PM, Brian White <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> That's the one easy one.
