Hello James, and thank you very much for your kind and fast reply. > I have a NeXT N4005 21" color monitor by Hitachi > that was being used on a Q800 with a D15 to 3 BNC cable.
Ok, so far we know that it is possible to connect a Monitor, which has BNC to a Mac that has only DB-15. But does that mean that we can also connect a Monitor that has only DB-15 to a NeXT that has only 13w3 after soldering a DB-15 to 13w3 adapter? Is a DB-15 to 13w3 possible? I know that the Apple 21" Display and the 15" portrait monitor were both connected via 13w3. I have seen adapters for Sun monitors, made for the purpose to connect these workstation monitors to ordinary PCs, but could some connect a Multiscan PC monitor to the Sun (or SGI or NeXT) workstation? *That* would match the situation I am in. What I am interested in is (where is my Volt-meter? Grrr) if the NeXT ColorStation�s power supply also sends the relatively high voltage of 12V 2 Ampere through the video cable, like seen on the mono stations. -Peter ---------- >Von: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (Quadlist) >An: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (Quadlist) >Betreff: Quadlist Digest #946 >Datum: Sam, 27.
