Hey Martin: I had a similar problem a year ago and finally ended up giving up on the wiring as explained in the diaquest manual. I use the sync out from the targa+ to the ref sync in on the diaquest. I record black stripe with the blackburst cable from the diaquest to a terminated video input on the VCR. After recording blackburst end to end I put the targa+ output to the video in replacing the diaquest black burst cable. Leave the sync out from the targa+ hooked up to the ref sync in cable and everything will sync lock. I haven't lost a frame in 13 months averaging 1000 frames per week. James at diaquest tech support doesn't like what I have done but he can't argue with success. Seems that the targa+ / tconfig does not operate stable receiving sync from the diaquest, however the diaquest will lock to external sync very well. It could be that MY diaquest sync generator is defective but I don't care to check it out because it works fine in this setup. Try my hookup, I'd be curious if it works for you too.
