Help on Monitor Type Selection...
Selecting the proper monitor type connected to your VGA allows the
proper refresh rate for your monitor to be utilized.  It also inhibits
using screen resolutions that your monitor will not support.  

Selecting a monitor type number that is lower than your monitor's
specifications may result in the unavailability of extended screen
resolutions, or increased flicker at higher resolutions caused by a slower
refresh rate.

Selecting a monitor type number that is higher than your monitor's
specifications may result in the availability of extended modes that
can not be displayed by your monitor.  This is generally referred to as
being out of sync.  

To select the correct monitor type, review your monitors specifications
and compare them to the table below to choose the appropriate type
number.

If you are uncertain of your monitor frequency range, use the Verify
feature to view through the supported 16-color modes.

Use the Advanced option to customize the frequency for the 640x480,
800x600, 1024x768 and 1280x1024 modes.

Saving The Correct Monitor Type Number\
======================================\
Some systems will remember the monitor type after you set it.  To
determine if your computer system has this feature, set the monitor
type by selecting "Save", then answer "No" to the prompt asking if you
wish to update your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  Exit the program by selecting
"Exit" or pressing <Alt-F4>.  Shut down all applications and turn off
your computer system.  Turn your computer system back on, and run this
program again.  If the monitor type you selected is highlighted in the
Set Monitor Type window, then your system can remember monitor types.

If it does not highlight the monitor type you previously selected then
you should update your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  Do this by selecting the
appropriate monitor type, then select "Save".  Answer "Yes" to the
prompt and exit the program.  The next time you reboot your computer
the monitor type you selected will be set automatically.

Keys\
====\
Select the monitor type connected to your system with the mouse or use
the <Up Arrow> and <Down Arrow> keys to move between fields, and the
<TAB> and <Alt-Tab> keys to move between groups.

Save - press <S> or <Alt-S> to save.  You will be prompted for an
update to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  Select Yes to create or update a line
in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to automatically set the monitor type. 
Select No to set the monitor type without modifying the AUTOEXEC.BAT
file.

Cancel - press <A> or <ESC> to exit the window without making changes.

Help on Video Modes Selection...
This selection previews the current modes supported. Press the ENTER 
key or left mouse button to view the next video mode.  To return to
the Video Modes Preview window, press the ESC key or click on the 
right mouse button.

Video modes are a unique combination of screen resolution and the
number of colors that can be displayed simultaneously.  Video modes can
be graphics or text oriented.

The list of available modes varies depending on the current
monitor type, the amount of video memory installed, and the VGA
controller revision.

Keys\
====\
To scroll through the list use the <Up Arrow> and <Down Arrow>, <Page
Up>, or <Page Down> keys.

Advance to the top of the list be pressing <Home>, the end of the list
by pressing <End>.

To move forward between groups or buttons press <Tab>, to move back
press <Shift-Tab>.

To exit the window press <ESC>.


Definitions\
===========\
Resolution - Horizontal and Vertical dimension in pixel units for
graphics modes and character units for text modes.

Colors - Number of colors displayed simultaneously.  This is the number
of colors available to be displayed.  Your application program must
support the number of colors you select.

Type - Text or graphics display mode.  Some graphics modes support text
output.  Generally graphics modes are used by applications programs or
graphical environments such as MS Windows, OS/2, and others.

Char Cell - Character width by character height in pixel units.

mono - Monochrome.

Mode Number - Video mode number in hexadecimal.  This number uniquely
identifies the combination of screen resolution and colors.  The mode
number can be used with this program from the command line to configure
the VGA to display the desired screen resolution.  This is most useful
for displaying extended text modes.

VESA Mode Number - V.E.S.A. is the Video Electronics Standards
Association.  VESA mode numbers designate common modes supported by
different manufacturers that belong to the V.E.S.A.  organization.  If
your VGA is configured to support VESA modes either through an external
"TSR" program, or through the video BIOS, then the VESA mode number
that corresponds to the resolution and color combination will be
displayed.



CENTERING ADJUST:

Centering is available while in VIDEO MODES/PREVIEW (only for extended
Graphics modes 58h and greater).  While in PREVIEW, you have the option
to use the Right/Left/Up/Down arrow keys to adjust your screen accordingly.
The screen adjustments have predefined limits, and in some cases, the limit
for the right side adjustment for some modes will have already been reached
when entering the PREVIEW mode.  In that case, no right side adjustment
will be allowed.  Once a mode has been adjusted, the new values for
Horizontal and/or Vertical positioning are saved within CLMODE.  On exit
from CLMODE, you are prompted on whether you want to save these new
parameters to TSR (CENTER.COM). If you choose to do this, the values to
be used for the adjusted modes are stored in CENTER.COM on exit.  CENTER.COM
can then be loaded outside of CLMODE.  Once this is accomplished, all the
modes which you have adjusted will be the active modes set when that
mode request is made.  To unload CENTER.COM, you must change the MONTYPE
currently set in CLMODE.  This will unload CENTER.COM uninstall all
centering adjustments previously redefined.  To save new centering
adjustments for a different MONTYPE, repeat the above procedure as before.
Your new adjustments will be written into CENTER.COM over the previously
defined adjustments.

An additional adjustment for monitor SYNC POLARITY is also available while
Centering is active.  To adjust the polarity of the current mode, simply
press the PgUp or PgDn keys (while in PREVIEW) to cycle through the
available options, (Vertical Sync Polarity/Horizontal Sync Polarity):

	+/+, +/-, -/+, -/-

NOTE:  Centering will not be allowed if CENTER.COM has been loaded.  You
must unload CENTER.COM before attempting to save new adjustments.

LIMITATIONS:  You may only adjust and save 16 modes at a time to CENTER.COM
You must use BIOS version 1.30 or greater or Centering will not be made
available.

REVERSE VIDEO - Reverse video text and graphics control.

BOLD - Text characters with the foreground intensity bit set are
displayed with a "bold" font.  Bold font characters must be available
in the VGA BIOS or loaded with a "TSR" program for this option to take
effect.

CONTRAST ENHANCEMENT - This option offers different ways of producing
greater contrast in text modes.\

	Black & White - This option should only be used on monochrome flat panels.  It is similar to "Text/Back.  Enhancement".  User's preference should determine which enhancement options to use.

	Greyscale/Color - This option is used to display color data on monochrome panels as shades of grey.  Users with color flat panels should select this option.

	Text Enhancement - This will cause colored text to have higher contrast on monochrome flat panels.

	Background Enhancement - This option causes high contrast in backgrounds.  Colored backgrounds are displayed as either black or white.

	Text/Back.  Enhancement - This option is equivalent to selecting both text and background enhancement.  Text enhancement maintains contrast from the background.

EXPAND MODE - This function controls the vertical expansion of text and 
graphics mode to fill as much of the panel as possible.

VERTICAL POSITION -  This function controls the vertical placement of the
video modes that do not use the full flat panel display.  This option
has no effect while expand mode is turned on.  Takes effect immediately
when the panel is the active display.

DISPLAY - This function controls whether the panel, or CRT is 
the current output device.  In SimulSCAN both the panel and CRT are
active.  This is generally used as a presentation mode.  The display
will be optimized for the CRT.  Some options such as expand mode and
bold font have no effect in SimulSCAN.

BUS WIDTH - This function sets 8-bit or 16-bit operation in an environment
where 16-bit operation is possible.

INHIBIT FONT LOAD - When the panel is the active display, a supplemental 
font is loaded to enhance the display quality.  This supplemental font is 
for text mode only.

FULL HEIGHT CURSOR - This option creates a full character sized block
cursor on the panel.  This larger cursor is helpful for quickly
locating the cursor on the panel.

RGB WEIGHTING - Change gray scale values on a monochrome flat panel or
the red, green, and blue values on a color flat panel.  This option
allows the user to configure color weighting to personal preference. 
Changes take effect immediately, when the panel is the active display.

POWER MANAGEMENT - Stand-by power down mode is an automatic power save
feature.  When no activity is detected for a preprogrammed time period,
then stand-by mode is entered.  Stand-by mode conserves power, allowing
longer battery operation.  THIS OPTION WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE IN PANEL
MODE.  IF YOU ARE CHANGING THE DISPLAY TO CRT OR SIMULSCAN YOU SHOULD
DISABLE THE POWER MANAGEMENT TIMER.


Note:  Some options are designed for a specific display mode, that is CRT,
SimulSCAN, or flat panel.  The following options take effect only in flat 
panel mode: Bold, Contrast Enhancement, Vertical Position, Full Height 
Cursor, and RGB Weighting.  In SimulSCAN and flat panel modes, Reverse 
Video may be used.  At any time, Display, Bus Width, and Inhibit Font 
Load may be used.
