This plugs into the RGB port. Then you plug the VGA cable between monitor and this adapter. Remember to finetune pixel clock on the BL 702A. Usually it will be somewhere between 88 to 94. You will see it when the Amiga picture looks good. You may have to tune the phase clock a bit aswell. Find those in the menu of the BL 702A

Or you could buy a cable that is VGA in monitor end and RGB in Amiga end https://www.ebay.com/itm/Amiga-LCD-M...QAAOSw4vpeSYDl

Does it matter if the vga adapter is buffered or unbuffered? I got a buffered one from amigastore.eu and it does not work with 2 A1200s I tested. The monitor works fine when fed through a Scanplus AGA scandoubler so I am wondering if I got the wrong type of adapter or if it is a faulty one.

Which LCD screen are you using? Not all will sync to 15KHz. The VGA adapters are simple passthrough adapters and as such do not convert the Amiga signal to one usable by most VGA screens.

I have this exact screen with both the original CBM adapter (390682-01) as well as the one from Amigakit and they both work fine. Does all the native resolutions although I miss the controls for best alignment left/right it's way better than the alternatives.
