kortek 2914 vga adapter

[tcleary]

I got one of these but it didn't have the vga adapter.  anyone know where I could obtain one or a work around for getting from the board to vga? 
here is the service manual:

it looks like I can wire something myself, ultimarc has a vga breakout cable, I ordered one, and I'm guessing I can line up the 6 pins with the associated wire from the vga breakout cable according to page 7 of the manual above. that only leaves me with the question what does "ring wire" mean on the chart. it lines up with rgb grounds and another ground on the d sub 15 pin side. do I need to do anything for those?

thanks for any help.

ring wire refers to the gnd braid on the connecting cable.

You don't need to worry about that "ring" if you don't have a shielded cable.  I seem to recall that it didn't even attach to anything metal on the monitor anyway (weird).

If you wish to make a harness yourself, the cable side connector for PC level signals (0.7Vpp into 75 ohms) is a 6 position Molex SPOX 2.5mm connector p/n 50-37-5063 (housing) 08-70-1040 (crimp terminal).  You can buy these parts at Digi-Key or Mouser easily.

you guys are awesome, I'm sure I'll be able to get it working now.  I ordered a vga breakout cable, so that should do it if I line up the pins.  thanks.
