Definitely save SCSI mass storage solutions for IDE deprived Macs. I run my 6400/6500 TinkerTestbed off CF/Adapter and it works great. SCSI internals was not only easier, it was necessary as IDE support was rudimentary when introduced in the Quadra 630 and PB190. It hadn't improved much by the...

I see one connector is for TTL, which answers the question with which I was coming back, some TTL interfaces used the DE-9 connection for Black and White Displays IIRC. Hopefully yours is analog on its proprietary DE-9 interface? Wondering about the relative cost of the Ehman CRTs was eating at...

This is an SE card we're talking about correct? No, you can't and that DisplayServer PDS/30 ain't gonna fly on the SE no matter what you do, that'd be for the SE/30 version of this contraption. Did any of this stuff really ship? I have no idea what any of the other headers are doing on that...

Well there goes that notion, it's an available, supported product, definitely not something to be public licensed for hobby use. :( https://www.extron.com/product/rgbhdmi300a Gotta give it a try at Component Video to HDMI, my TV is HORRIBLE when it comes to that.

Which lines from the logic board harness are you connecting to what & where? A diagram of your hookup would be most helpful in troubleshooting. There's an ancient setup for building the CatMac/Hickintosh floating around, checking against that would be my first step. There have been fairly...

Definitely needs to be closed from viewing by lurkers. Nasty things happened over the years at the MLA despite the TP being a closed system. I feel lucky to be able to view pics I post full size here when I'm at work and can't log on. That's something I can no longer do at the MLA for whatever...

My piles are on every available surface, but mostly around the edges of the floor. Love those storage boxes, I'll keep them in mind, thanks.

Thanks for the clarification, interesting project. Never thought it was off topic, just wondered what was up. Looks like yet another application for the Extron Scaler. I've seen a lot of CC LCD mods, but none using the OEM board, all I recall offhand were VGA capable Logic board transplants...

Love it, what kind of containers are you using in those drawers?

Not sure what you mean here? Color depth? That's determined by the configuration of the Mac. However it's transmitted to a display, it's still the contents of the frame buffer as limited by amount of VRAM in the system or on a VidCard. Are you asking if there might be unsupported options? Has...

Classic II will make a great donor if the boards remain problematic. That frees the case up for some quality playtime with an LCD and far better system components to back it up. 😜

Lisa KBD/Mouse would really jazz up that beautiful collection. ;)

Same and a bit new? Now running the PDS lines straight up through the FPU rather than introducing a fork in the road. Now wondering if the SE can address the likes of the Radius Color Pivot II/si (in single bit B&W mode) on its PDS interrupt with the help of the 030 on Performer? With the...

OK, played a bit at work and did a pasteup/doodle comp of exactly what I'm aiming to accomplish: Physical interference precludes the possibility of installing both connectors due to chassis opening constraints and interference with the shroud on a MagicBus Card connector, but the thruholes...

FPD card form factor makes for a football field proportion development board playground. :)

I've been mentioning this concept here and there for a month or two, but finally put together the start of a thread. Baseline Radius MagicBus Adapter for non-accelerated SE with TPD card: Pencil lines denote config of full size opening in chassis. MagicBus integrated in Radius 16...

You caught me editing, figured the one text link you clicked just wouldn't do. :)

Nope, it doesn't scale specific resolutions to fill the available screen resolution on any given display with edges letterboxed or pillared the way I've tried it. @cheesestraws knows the ins and outs on this one. Portrait res of some flavor or other looked like this centered up at 1:1 on my...

Pictures and attachments are mostly missing from this thread, but there's a TXT Diagram of how I got mine up and running. https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/radius-tpd-se-up-and-running-on-an-lcd-no-less.33403/ I've got decent pics somewhere of the cable setup or I'll take more. Hooking...
