I have the motorised stand from MX7000 and I was trying to change the baseplate and get install into my MX4200. Upon closer look, MX4200 have different STAND port which is like 5pins DIN (meanwhile the MX4000 is 4Pins DIN). The cable from stand could not be hooked up into this STAND port on MX4200. How should I hook up the motorised stand cable into the MX4200 STAND port?

As far as I know you can't. The interface is different electrically as well.

So i need to get a motorised stand that specifically designed for MX4200? or that there is no motorised stand for MX4200 model at all
The motor unit (5 pins) is the same for a MX4200 and MX8000
The stand for a MX4200 is de same as a mx3500 mx4000.

And MX4002
Yes. I believe MX8000 uses the same stand interface as MX4200. But this is all from vague memory, I've never had any of these last model CRTs myself.
Ken beat me to it.
I had an MX4002 years ago, which I loved. I believe the motorized stand was B&O type no. 4116.

Reading this whole thread again, the information is still a bit ambiguous. So, just to recap:
Can someone point me to the right direction where I can somehow adapt 4pin to 5pin so that I can use my current motorised stand for my MX4200? If not, anyone on ebay selling the motorised stand for MX4200? Thanks
The motors are completely different electrically and cannot be modified.

This is not true. The motors themselves ARE compatible, the surrounding electronics are different.
I found info on internet from a guy who exchanged the motor from a MX4000/7000 stand to a MX4200/8000 stand.
