G'day
I've just purchased a mac IIci (I always wanted to but couldn't afford it several years ago!) The problem is finding the right monitor for it.
I've got a HP-71 PC monitor and two macintosh-PC monitor adapters.
One of them is a viewsonic Mac adapter that has a :
<Screen Range - Fixed Resolution - Switch Setting>
set up on it, the other has what seems like a phone dial knob with similar settings.
Would any of them work to get the IIci working on my HP71? I've made several attempts at various settings but it didn't work....
You need a certain type of adapter for Mac II machines and some older NuBus video cards that has a larger bank of switches. The Mac II s use 'Sync-on-Green' signals. In order to use a Mac II on a VGA monitor you have to redirect the Sync to one of the Sync channels. Thus you need amore complex adapter, and have to spend a bit of time putzing about with the the dip switches.
