i am installing in my PacMan i searched on line here and Bob Roberts site and my wire colors are not matching up

4600 w interface board
#1 white
#2Yellow/black
#3 blank
#4 red
#5 green /red
#6 blank

white/ blue are wired up to the 0range/black sync

my GO7

#1 red
#2 green
#3 blue
#4 ground
#5 ?
#6 ?

You must have one of the older interface cards in your K4600 (P297 or P302?). Those map to (purpose, not wire color...):
1=G
2=B
3=(not connected)
4=R
5=GND
6=SYNC (composite neg.)

AFAIK, a G07 has two connectors, a 6-pin and a 3-pin, which are:
1=R
2=G
3=B
4=GND
5=V+
6=H+
and for the 3-pin connector on the G07:
1=GND
2=V-
3=H-

So, what does this all mean... Well, for one thing you appear to be missing a wire. At least 5 are needed for a video signal (red, green, blue, sync and ground). Having nothing into pin 6 on the K4600 means you're lacking the sync signal. Another thing, Pacman produces composite negative sync, so you'll need to connect it to the NEGATIVE sync on the G07, which is on the 3-pin connector (not the positive sync which in the 6-pin connector). Also, connect the composite sync to both the H & V (negative) sync pins. Finally, only one ground is necessary--no need to connect to both the ground in the 6-pin and the one in the 3-pin.

All that clear as mud?

In final analysis, you should end up with:

1) The orange/red wire from Pac (compsite negative sync) going to both pins 2 & 3 of the 3-pin connector on the G07.

2) The red/white wire from Pac (red signal) going to pin 1 of the 6-pin connector on the G07.

3) The white whire from Pac (green signal) going to pin 2 of the 6-pin connector on the G07.

4) The yellow/black wire from Pac (blue signal) going to pin 3 of the 6-pin connector on the G07.

5) The green/red wire from Pac (ground) going to pin 4 of the 6-pin connector on the G07.

The best news is, I don't think any real damage can occur from mis-wiring video signals...
 
DarrenF you are right it is a older monitor thank you for the help, now i am trying to shrink image but if i go far to the end of the sync i loose sync.
