Guys, I just sold a local customer a Barco 909. He didn't have a VGA to 5 BNC cable, so he called asking why the port 3 won't work with VGA. I responded that port 3 is a 9 pin, he can't force his 15 pin connector in there. To make sure I'm not an idiot, I check the three other 909s that are here. They are all 9 pin ports. He sends the below picture. I'll be damned, his has a 15 pin connector. THis is a later version of the 909. Did BArco change to a 15 pin connector? SHould it accept a normal VGa signal?

Never seen this before..

Yes they did. I have one with a 9 pin and one with a 15 pin. If I remember correctly the 15 pin works fine.
