(The following lists were compiled by deepfb)

The following computers can be connected to the usual Amstrad CTM644 (or the unusual CTM640/CM14) monitors:

  • Tatung Einstein (through resistors to lower the R-G-B signals' voltage; pins must be reasigned; and horizontal focus position must be realigned)
  • BBC Model B (may need resistors? I think the signal is too much strong, but it seems to work ok...)
  • BBC Master (may need resistors? I think the signal is too much strong, but it seems to work ok...
  • Spectrum +3 (through resistors to lower the R-G-B signals' voltage; pins must be reassigned)
  • Spectrum +2A (through resistors to lower the R-G-B signals' voltage; pins must be reassigned)
  • Sinclair QL (through resistors to lower the R-G-B signals' voltage; pins must be reassigned)
  • RFT Kc-compact (pins must be reassigned)
  • Patisonic Aleste 520EX (pins must be reassigned)
  • Camputers Lynx 48k (pins must be reassigned, and horizontal focus position must be realigned)
  • Oric 48k/Atmos (pins must be reassigned)
  • Enterprise 64/128 (pins must be reassigned, and R-G-B brightness must be re-set for each colour)
  • Exeltel Exelvision (pins must be reassigned)
  • Amiga range computers

As a general rule, you will be able to connect computers with RGB video output *and composite sync*. Therefore, it is possible that the following computers can be connected to an Amstrad monitor:

  • Thomson MO5 (probably)
  • Didaktik M48
  • Radofin Aquarius with SCART connector (french Aquarius)
  • MGT Sam Coupé (probably)
  • MSX Computers (probably)
  • French Sega SC-3000x computers
  • Acorn Electron
  • French Mattel Intellivision with SCART output
  • French CBS Colecovision with SCART output
  • French Atari 7800 with SCART output
  • Atari ST computers (probably)
