Hi,
during the process of moving my tank, I have lost the communication cable. Probably it has been thrown away with old stuff. What are the characteristics of the cable so that I can replace it? Is it a standard cable? Can I find it at the electronics stores? Many thanks.

HDDB15 Communication Cable
Re: HDDB15 Communication Cable
You can get them in the webstore.
If you go to the local electronic store, just make sure to purchase one with a good quality as most svga cables don't have all wires inside the cable split into singles. They connect many together to save cost.

Re: HDDB15 Communication Cable
Thank you Roberto. I just have a doubt. As shown in the two attached pictures, the two female connectors (power box and head unit) are NOT identical. The disposition of the holes is specular. How does this reflect on the appropriate SVGA cable (male connectors)?
Thanks again.
Marco
Thanks again.

Re: HDDB15 Communication Cable
Weird.
They should be the same.
How are you connecting the svga cable now?
They should be able to be plugged in either side without a problem.

Re: HDDB15 Communication Cable
In fact I am not connecting it as I have lost the cable. I had another svga cable at home, but when I have tried to use it, it has not matched on the power box side. That's really strange.
Re: HDDB15 Communication Cable
Looking at the 2nd picture, that cable/plug was modified somewhere along the way. Look closely at the right side of the housing, top and bottom, and you can see where insert tapers down like it would if it were inserted the other way around.
Re: HDDB15 Communication Cable
Thank you Piper. You are right!
My fault.

Re: HDDB15 Communication Cable
Hi Roberto,
do you confirm that 15 single wires connecting pin to pin are required? The local webstore could provide only one VGA cable with pins 6, 7 and 8 (Standard RED_RTN, GREEN_RTN and BLUE_RTN) interconnected.
If 15 singles are required, they can make it ad hoc for me. Thanks.
