Your monitor has 75 ohm terminated video inputs, standard video monitor. See this page for what components need to be inline with the video signals.

Leaving the components out is not very likely to hurt anything to but it is theoretically possible to damage the console's video encoder this way. I suspect that, unless you're extremely unlucky, the only thing that will be damaged is the picture quality.

The XM29 does not require any extra components to accept video from any console that supports RGB SCART. All the levels and impedances are fine.

The only thing you may need are separate H/V sync signals which you can get either directly from the console or via RGB SCART and a sync splitter. I made the latter for my own XM29.
