brownt02 Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 Hi, Can anyone help me work out what this cable is and where to get it from. It is a for a height adjustable smartboard that increase and decreases the height. The kids have broken the swtich end off so it now stuck at the max height.
difinity Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 Looks like a standard 8 pin DIN connector.
sparkeh Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 Looks like a standard 8 pin DIN connector. Agreed, standard to get from anywhere.
Andrew_C Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 Yup, 8 pin DIN. Craplin, CPC, RS... Enjoy soldering that if you're a bit shaky! 1

elsiegee40 Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 There are many of us of a certain age that probably have a similar vintage cable lurking in that box of useful cables somewhere... You can probably source a replacement pretty cheaply from ebay or somewhere
round2it Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 Or carboot sale someone is always selling them from a box of cables no one needs.
Andrew_C Posted October 1, 2016 Posted October 1, 2016 8 pin isn't that common though - not like a 5 pin MIDI or cassette recorder lead!
mdrabble Posted October 1, 2016 Posted October 1, 2016 (edited) Looks like the old RS232 for a BBC Micro. (now how feels old) :-D Just looked and it more like the rgb connection Edited October 1, 2016 by mdrabble
brownt02 Posted October 3, 2016 Author Posted October 3, 2016 I need it to have a up and down switch on the end for a smart board if possible, the primary school have broken the switch and lost it.
Joanne Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Might be worth getting in touch with SMART?? They might have some old bits lying about and send you one.
mikkydoos Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 8 Pin DIN. Maplin for pence. Remember them on old portable cassette recorders. Sigh!

Andrew_C Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 And there are three versions of the 5pin! 180º, 270º, and domino.

robk Posted October 4, 2016 Posted October 4, 2016 What I can get @Domino in multiple version... the world is not ready for that! Don't worry there was only one @Domino 5 pin din type...
