X68000 XVI Compact connected to Sony PVM monitor?

Post by fandenivoldsk »

I just bought a X68000 XVI Compact with keyboard on Yahoo! Japan (still looking for a mouse... anyone have one for sale?).

Now, when it will arrive in a few weeks, I want to hook it up to one of my monitors. My Sony PVM 2130QM
would be the best choice for me, but I guess 21Khz and 31Khz resoultions of the X68000 will not work, only 15Khz output.
However, my questions is, is it possible to get a scart cable that does this: X68000 RBG output (15Khz) > scart cable > Sony PVM?
Or do I need a better multisync monitor? (I do have a NEC XM29 multisync monitor, but it is broken right now...)

You need a multisync monitor. The machine boots in 31 and most game require holding keys during boot to change to 15. Some games are 31 only.

Ok, guess it is time to fix the NEC XM29 then.
