You need one of the Ultraspec # 1396 adaptors (HD15 male to 13W3 female)
which will convert the VGA output connector on your machine (presumably a
PC) into a D13W3 which the captive cable from the GDM-20D10 monitor can plug
into.

Take note that your PC *must* be set up with the display adaptor configured
to output video signals which match Sun's or the monitor will not work. The
cable adaptors do *not* modify the video signals in any way. However the #
1396 has a sync combiner internally to suit the GDM-20D10 and other similar
vintage Sun monitors.

Standard Sun colour video is 1152 x 900 with a horizontal frequency of 62.75
KHz and a vertical frequency of 66 Hz. 20D10's also support 1280 x 1024
display sizes, but I'm not sure of the frequencies required.

Regards,

Craig.
