After recently purchasing the  Falcon  030,  I  had a terrible problem
trying to obtain the adapters (C303109-001) to  hook up a VGA (15 pin)
monitor.  I managed to get a diagram  and spoke to Atari who helped by
informing me of an undocumented requirement.

I know that Atari shipped the adapters  recently so there should be no
problem now, for  those  who  can't  wait  or  prefer  to  DIY, I have
included the Maplin part numbers.

Falcon 030 connection to VGA monitor (15 pin)

First!!!

Diagram of pin connections in Falcon manual are marked INCORRECTLY

It should read:

                  ----------------------------------
                  \ 10  9  8  7  6  5  4  3  2  1  /
                   \                              /
                    \ 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 /
                      --------------------------

Pin connections as follows:
