Hey Joe,
The power connector on a Cine' monitor is actually a 15-pin connector with 8 contacts being used. Did he mean that there are two different Vectorbeam connector configurations?

Subject: VECTOR: Cinematronics/Vectorbeam conversion adapters?
Has anyone here ever successfully made an adapter that would convert the plug of a Cinematronics monitor into a Vectorbeam monitor (and vice versa)? A friend of mine not on this list, but one of the better Cine monitor repair guys I know says that in theory, it should be straightforward and easy, but he's tried is a couple of times and each time has blown his monitor. Hmmm...maybe he's not as good of a Cine monitor repair guy as I've been lead to believe. ;^)
Anyway, has anyone ever done this? Any tricks to know? I've never seen a Vectorbeam monitor, but he told me one monitor is a 6 pin connector and the other is a 7 pin connector, and the extra pin is just an additional ground.
Thoughts? Comments? Thanks,
Joe
