Well here is the pin connections for hooking up a Commodore 1084 monitor to
the ST computers. First off you are doing this on your own and are taking
all the risks(I guess that you need this type of header).

The cable that I used is from Practical Solutions, which is a nice cable
all shielded and has the ST connector already hooked up. Also included is the
pinouts and their corresponding coloured wire.

ST pins number                 Commodore 1084
6-GREEN-RGB                          1
7-RED-RGB                            4
9-H SYNC                             2
10-BLUE-RGB                          5
12-V SYNC                            6
13-GROUND                            3


That is all there is to it, remember to hook the shielding up to the outer 
shield of the 6-Pin Din plug on the monitor end. You can pick up the Din plug
at Radio Shack for two bucks or so. It works for me, if you are not sure about
doing this yourself GET SOMEONE ELSE TO DO IT FOR YOU!

P.S. Also remember that the ST should be plugged into the ANALOG(?) RGB port.
