Shift838 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) I was thinking for all the Geneve users out there that may have a RGB monitor and hate soldering the din connector to cables. So... I came up with this. a standard din 8 pin that is used on cables will solder directly on one side and on the other a DB9 Male. Plugs right in to the Geneve then you can make your own cables easily with db9 connectors. Edited June 18, 2019 by Shift838 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shift838 Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 I have ordered a few. a Geneve'r will need to make their own cable for the DB9 but it's a hell of a lot easier than messing with the DIN connectors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift838 Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 I got the test boards in. Put one together and decided to interface it with a GBSGenie EVPC board with a GBS8200 since I had an awesome case for use for the GBS8200 from Corei64 (HERE). I just had to drill a hole for the audio pigtail. the DB9 converter board fits nicely on the back of the Geneve video socket. I have used a small pigtail for audio. See pics. It works great with the Geneve. Good clear picture and hooked up VGA! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift838 Posted July 30, 2019 Author Share Posted July 30, 2019 I have a couple of these DIN to DB9 boards available. $7.00 + shipping (assembled/tested). great for converting your DIN8 to a DB9 for use with a DB9 based RGB monitor or use your Geneve with a GBS8200. PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
