I have an old (1981) NC turning center with the Yasnac 2000G control. It has a CRT that has a dark area and has done some weird flickers in the past. I figure it is just a matter of time before it becomes unusable - so I'm looking to switch it over to a LCD on the cheap. It is not a money making machine and I'm not going to spend $400-$700 for a used monitor that is just as old, or closer to $1000 for a commercial solution that fits in the same frame.
I have one of the XVGA box GBS-8219/GBS-8239 type video converters coming. It is supposed to take MDA and go down to 15 Hz for the horizontal sync which is what I think I have.
The CRT is a Matsushita TR-6DA1 used on Yasnac 2000g G machines like the Mori-Seiki and Takamatsu
It connects to the Yaskawa Control Panel Df6101675 with a 6 wire plug. This is what I have to figure out.
IBM original MDA used 6 wires of the 9 pin connector with 2 grounds, intensity, video, hor sync, vert sync. So I'm hoping it is similar.
I've searched all through here and the internet and have not found what I need.
Has anyone done this already, or have a pinout of the Yaskawa board - or help with pinning it out myself without destroying it?
