The naked CRT is the CRT module for the IBM 5155 , but all it needs is 12V and an ntsc composite video signal. The video is inverted with CloseView , with magnification turned off , but leaves a tell-tale zoom box see bottom right , its also a little slow. There is an invert video program...

Unfortunately not easily. You would need a composite to sync separated video. However it could be a project for rgb2hdmi with 15khz rgbhv video out to cpc , I have never tried that output mode

This is my tube swap between a mac and a 5155 monitor chassis , as long as crt band mount is the same you should have no issues

Wow great job, congrats on getting it going again. That board was with a stack of 4 840AV boards that originally was part of Apple waste back in the day when the 840av was current. Apple were less careful with their waste back then and these were thrown out due to cosmetic issues. At the time...

Happy 40th!

There is also this clone made by ALPS (MEADB-), But inside we have a familiar IC. Not sure if the membrane layout is the same though

Great project , I have a few different ones Made in Czech Rep. 3 Screws on base Assembled in Thailand, 4 screws on base

The VGA monitor config is not available on the IIsi, best to select something like "Apple Macintosh Color Display" or any of the monitor types here without the '*' https://bitsavers.org/pdf/apple/mac/monitor/monitor_sense/hw_30.pdf and hope the monitor can do composite sync / sync on green

Great work , I got a chance to try it out today on the Powerbook 180. Speed is about 30K/s. I coudn't pin it down, but it seemed I had to ping out from the powerbook with MacPing to get the network to go live. Will do more testing ..

Sounds like a cool event, here are my two entries. o7

Some cool things are possible with SCSI target mode and bluescsi, here I have no drive at all in IIsi, both the HD and the CD image are mounted over target mode from my powerbook 180.

Sold a lot of pcs with this case back in the day, I knew I had at least 1 hanging around , I think I have the bones of a second. Yours for postage if you want. It would go though normal post as none of the couriers I use will send to uk. These pictures were taken today.

This might be of interest

Oh thanks for that, That will be next on my list to check.
