Radio Shack TRS-80 Model I Video to Composite Adaptor Pinout Layout

[AndyDiags]

Here is the pinout for creating a composite video cable to connect from a TRS-80 to a video monitor.

Needed:

• 5 Pin male DIN connector
• RCA cable with connector

I went with creating a short adaptor cable with a female RCA plug, this way I never need to reach behind the CRT to plug it in and just use an existing composite cable plugged into the monitor. I also like to label the DIN connector with an arrow to quickly be able to tell which side is up.

Great summary, thanks for sharing! I wish it would have been as easy to "mod" the CoCo2, but alas... I have been researching various internal mods and will attempt shortly.
