Q219 cables.

I can check more in depth later (have to run and can't trace where each cable goes till later), if needed/desired, but fwiw*, on mine* the connector with 2 wires running to it is on the lower of the two connectors on the Q219, facing the front of the mainframe, the one with a single wire is on the upper. This is a known-good system, *however it one I got years ago without the lightpen so am going by the state it was in back then. Maybe someone else can confirm this is the right way? Also am trying to rig up something like RYStroh's LCD/off the shelf FastPoint lightpen interface, snags being: I have the Fastpoint SVGA with serial breakout cable, and the LCD, but don't know which standard FastPoint lightpen to use, there are several, all different 421, 421, 935? etc) and the wiring between that serial interface and the CMI display cable, the connector, no idea of it's wiring. If anyone's gotten this running, has this info or could get from RYStroh or if they've figured it out otherwise and can help (me and presumably others here) get this info, it would be a Godsend. Will put up a link to the place selling the Fastpoint splitter cable if anyone wants it. --- On Tue, 11/17/09, WT <waveterm@telia.com> wrote:

Hi Glenn ! thanks for the info. This was what I was looking for. I have replaced my damaged Q219 card and didn´t make a note where the two cables where attached. I´ll await others to confirm your info before connecting and powering up. ( though the servicemanual states that both connectors carry video output but the lower is where the pen is connected ). Wt
