FM Towns:Connector Pinouts

Important Pinouts
Most of these pinouts come from the "Towns Redbook" Version 3.

The External SCSI and RS232 ports are the standard ports and have no crazy different pins. It's all the same.

Keyboard
Towns Keyboard uses the Hirose HR12-10 connector which is still obtainable.

Gamepad and Mouse
Gamepad and Mouse use the same connector and pinout. However you should be wary to plug them into the correct ports regardless. It is well known X68000 and MSX gamepads work also on FMT.

RGB Connector
The pins for RGBHV are present but the connector is different than a normal VGA connector. This connector is common on other Japanese Computers.

Video Card Connector for Gen 1 Towers
This is thought to be the video card pinout in the expansion slot only for Generation 1 tower models.

Video Card Connector for all other models
This is the internal pinout for the 96-pin white expansion port.
