Title: Cable hookups for the ND Cube?
Post by: gregor on June 09, 2025, 04:53:44 PM
I'm mightily embarrassed to ask, but I can't remember how keyboard and mouse gets connected to the Turbo Dimension Cube.  I know how the color (and mono) monitor goes together, but since I plan to run only a color display, I think I might need another DB19 cable hook it up thru the NeXT Sound Box.  It's been so many years since I had this running as a dual Turbo Dimension system, the wiring protocol is eluding me.

Any help appreciated....

Hi Gregor, you are right: you also need the DB19 cable to connect the Soundbox.
See the attached image.

I can set up a sticky post. Does anyone have the full image? I seem to remember seeing it recently.

You can find that image in the NeXT booklet "Here's how...", or if you don't have it, you can also find it in the book "Inside NeXT", on page 63.

Thanks @krazycat. I'll scan it from the Here's How booklet.

Is there a similar chart for the ADB models? I imagine it's the same just with ADB peripherals. That is that the sound box is ADB and I guess the greyscale monitor is too?

I don't know for the monitor, but yes, that's the way it is for the ADB sound box.
