Hello everyone!

Just a word of caution on Panasonic's Panasync C1391 monitor and your
Amiga:

The manual I received with my monitor gives an incorrect pinout for their
connector.  If you use their pin descriptions and the pin numbers *on the
connector* you should be okay.  Their drawing reverses the pin numbers.

Second, their manual tells you to leave several pins disconnected when
using analog mode.  This *will not work at all*.  You have to connect
these pins to ground to get the monitor working.

The monitor looks pretty good and works fine with 15.75 kHz, although
the screen size is not perfect (may need some internal tweaking).

I hope this helps even one person avoid the crap I went through!

Paul
