[Coco] Coco monitors 1084s-xx ?

[Kip Koon]

Hi Bill!
My 1084S-P unfortunately does not have the DB9 RGB connector.  Instead it
has 2 round DIN connectors for RGB input.  One is labeled "TTL RGB" with
8-pins and the other is labeled "lin. RGB" with 6-pins and I have no clue
what the pin out is for either input.  I would like to use the RGB inputs.
Would anyone have any information on how to utilize these inputs?  Any help
is appreciated.  Thank you in advance.
Kip

It's the "Commodore 1084S Monitor Cable DB-9 Mating Cable" on the Cloud-9
site. Just make sure your 1084S has the square connector (some don't, as
there were several models of the 1084). For mine, the Cloud-9 cable
terminated in a female connection, which is the same as on the back of my
1084S, so I needed to change the gender to male so it could plug into my
1084S. Here are the photos of the connections and the gender changer:
