This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

BBC/ELK RGB MONITOR LEAD
**************************
6PIN DIN PLUG (BBC/ELK End) to 3 x BNC PLUGS
********************************************
Pin out for 6 pin Din (See diagram) :
1 : RED (Core)
2 : GREEN (Core)
3 : BLUE (Core)
4 : Composite Sync
5 : 0V (All screens)
6 : +5V (Not Used)
Ideally you want a length of cable with Red Green and Blue wires all
individually screened.Maplin does some suitable. Alternatively if you find
some cable with different coloured wires you could "label" them with
Red,Green and Blue PVC tape.So long as you know which one is which.
Connect a BNC plug to each wire in turn at one end of the cable.Red core
to centre pin in one BNC plug,Red screen to plug shield in same plug and
so on.Thus ending up with 3 free ends (R,G,B).
At the Din end its a bit more complicated and you haven't a lot of room
to move.Red Core goes to pin 1,Green Core goes to pin 2,Blue Core goes to
pin 3.Using some thin instrument wire or suitably insulated link wire link
pin 4 (Sync) to Green Core (Pin 2).Similarly link all three screens
together and connect to 0v (Pin 5).Pin 6 is not used in this instance.
And that's all there is to it.Once it was all connected up,in my
instance I had to play about with the screen width etc on the monitor to
centralise the picture.But a little fine tuning is no great problem is
it ? All I did was switch it on with the ELK connected and twiddle until I
was happy with the picture.
If anybody's interested I've also got the info on how to make a VGA
lead for computers which can use that facility via a 15 pin HD D Plug.Just
contact me and I'll send a photocopy for the price of return postage.
