This is the info I found out to enable the connection of my Sony Multiscan
to the VGA from the PS/2 model 50. Initially I had the adapter for the
NEC MultiSync (I think... the dealer gave me this little cable, but when
I attached the Sony cable to this, and then the short adapter to the VGA
15-pin, I got a screen that scrolled all over the place, and had all
the wrong colors.)

In addition to scrolling, I rec'd a 2401 error from the startup tests; when
I ran the diagnostics (difficult when the screen is jumping and overlapping
like mad!) I got a 2402 error, and the message that the VGA had a problem
and the system board needed to be replaced. (false)

I got the Sony pinout from somewhere (this is the analog):

	Pin	function
	----------------
	1	gnd
	2	gnd
	3	red
	4	grn
	5	blu
	6	gnd
	7	no connection
	8	horiz sync
	9	vert sync
==============================

I called IBM customer service...  the fellow searched thru his database,
and gave me the following...

	Pin	function
	----------------
	1	red
	2	grn
	3	blu
	4	reserved
	5	digital g. (I assumed this meant gnd)
	6	red rtn    (must be the return signal that informs the vga
		            that this is a color on monochrome monitor)
	7	grn rtn
	8	blu rtn
	9	plug       (no funcion?)
	10	digital g.
	11	reserved
	12	reserved
	13	horiz. sync
	14	vert sync
	15	reserved
==========================

I took the cable apart (my dealer seemed incapable of finding out what the
problem was) and found that that not a single one of the wires was
connected to the correct pin!

When I rebuilt it to match the above, the Sony works perfectly, and I get
no more error beeps or codes. It's interesting that the diagnostics don't
seem to distinguish between the monitor and the system board ... I guess
they just assume you will be using the IBM monitor... altho' it seems to me
I saw a message somewhere that someone else who had a 2401 error had
problems with the monitor.

Hope this helps a few people!
