Well, going back to the 1070, the assignment is as follows: 1————signal ground 2————signal ground 3————red 4————green 5————blue 6————not connected 7————composite SYNC 8————not connected 9————not connected Depending on the switch setting for RGBA or RGBI, it may (the 1080 that is) not use separated sync in the Analog position…probably your best bet, is to go to an Amiga dealer, I'm sure they wouldn't mind giving you the exact pinouts for the 1080.

Well, the Amiga dealer I went to had no idea what the pin outs are… Do you know the difference between a v-sync/h-sync and the Comp sync?? Thanks a lot for the info..

The dealer is giving you the run-around, talk to the service guy, they _have_ to have service facilities to be an authorized Amiga dealer and I can't believe the service guy doesn't know what the pinouts are. Composite sync is just that, a composite of both the horizontal and vertical sync signals in 1. Very similar to a standard TV signal, except it has no video (picture) information…just the sync signals. Separated sync is what the ST uses (and the Amiga also supplies it via the DB23 on pins 11 (H sync) and 12 (V sync) where a separate line is used for the horizontal syncronization signals and another line for the vertical syncronization signals.
