Default B&W Monitor and Laptop, Interfacing problem. - 10-17-2003 , 04:22 AM






May I first apologise for cross posting, I wasn't sure where to post my
question.
__________________________________________________ ___________________

I have a B&W reversing camera and monitor on a specialist vehicle which I
would like to connect up to my laptop to display the output from the laptop
on the B&W monitor (when running GPS software, as the B&W monitor is on the
dashboard and pc under the seat).

The output from the laptop is the standard 15pin 'D' socket, as on all pc's.

The B&W monitor has an input socket similar to a PS2 (like on a
mouse/keyboard) of which the 4 pins are marked
+ve 12v dc
-ve
Video
NC

Does anyone know how I can interface the above (components like plugs wires
are not a problem)? Would I need a special interfacing unit, or would it be
possible to use various pins connections?

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the help. I found one on eBay. Just waiting for delivery to try
it.

You need a video modulator with VGA input. This takes VGA output and
creates a modulated video signal that suits the video pin on the monitor.
There's an example here:
