| ERROR FIXED | The connections are correct on the diagram however the numbering of the pins differs from the manual. According to appendix C of the C128 system guide the center pin is labelled as Pin6 (chroma). | APPROVED | ||
| ERROR FIXED | ************************************************************************ Here is the A/V connector of the C64 and C128 shown facing the rear of the computer. Note that early versions of the C64 have a 5 pin DIN connector while later versions have an 8 pin. The two are wired exactly the same, except that the 8 pin connector has a separated chroma (color) output on pin 6. Earlier C64s didnt have separated chroma. Note the U shape of the connector pins. Its different than the circular pattern of the RGB DIN connector on the 1902A monitor, for example. Note: the early two wire cable (5 pin DIN) is used for composite video and audio only, and a three wire cable (8 pin DIN) is needed for Y/C video and audio. see note below -----8 7-----no connection 6---------chroma out audio out -----3 1----- luminance (B W signal) audio in -----5 4----- composite video out 2----- ground Important note: the later C64C and the C128 both have a power supply line going to one of the unused pins: pin 8. Be careful!!! ************************************************************************ The preceeding information was copied from Ray Carlsens website and is to the best of my knowledge correct.
