Radius Monochrome Pivot NEW!
Posted by: TheNixer on 2011-06-29 10:29:17
It wasn't a sealed box but the packing around the monitor was sealed. It looks perfect! It's a model 0361. I just acquired a Quadra 700 and the NUBUS card came with the monitor (as well as all cables, software and documentation). BUT I'm wondering if the color Radius Pivot card for the SE/30 will work with this monitor. Has anyone tried it? I haven't seen a monochrome Pivot card for the compact Macs. I'd really like to get this Radius set up with either an SE or SE/30 instead of the Quadra 700. I have an Apple Portrait for the Quadra.

Does is the video cable have DB9 on both ends or DB9 on one end and DB15 on the other?

I got a mono pivot and several pivot cards but no cables.

I'm collecting every type Pivot Card I can lay my grubby lil' paws upon!

I'm trying to decode the color designations/signals necessary to make them work on a manual basis. I'd like to get them set up to run a multisync monitor in either orientation, preferably modern LCD Pivots.

Any documentation you can scan and share would be a BIG help

I KNOW that I've got ALL the FPD model/Card Combo info stashed somewhere as well as Pivot/Card combo info and everything ever posted on my Rocket, RocketShare and the SCSI II DaughterCard of my dreams etc.! [😀] ]'>

I pretty much stripped their FaxBack system of everything it contained back in the day! }🙂

p.s. forgot to say congrats . . . I'm more than a bit envious of your Marvelous Mint Monitor! 😉 :I

Oh, nice score. I'm on the lookout for a pivot myself. Congrats.

Thanks for the replies! Trash80, that's awesome. I'm now on the lookout for Pivot cards as well. All I have that will run this display currently is a Quadra 700 and IIcx. I'll scan my documentation but it'll take me a few days. I'll send it to you!

Thanks olePigeon, I have a love for portrait monitors.

CelGen - It's a DB9 / DB15 cable.

Oh, awesome. That pretty much sums up that my Pivot will work with the cards I got. Now I just need the pinout for the cable.
