GENERAL
MultiSync PLUS The Intelligent Monitor, from NEC, is a high resolution color mo-
nitor that automatically adjusts to graphics board scanning frequencies from
21.8 kHz to 45 kHz. MultiSync PLUS gives IBM PC, PC/XT, PC/AT, Personal Sys-
tem/2 and
PC compatibles users crisp text and vivid color graphics displays when
used with any of the IBM graphics adapters (the MCGA, VGA, EGA or PGC).
MultiSync PLUS can also
be used with other IBM compatible graphics adapters
to provide IBM users with the widest range of color monitor compatibility and
capability available in the market place.
FEATURES
• MultiSync PLUS automatically scans all frequencies between 21.8 kHz and
45kHz.
• MultiSync PLUS is compatible with the IBM
PC, PC/XT, PC/AT and look-alikes.
• MultiSync PLUS is compatible with the IBM Professional Graphic Controller,
the IBM Enhanced Graphics Adapter, the IBM Video Graphics Array, the IBM
Multi Color Graphics Array and other IBM compatible graphics adapters.
• MultiSync PLUS's wide compatibility makes it possible to upgrade boards or
software without purchasing a new monitor.
• MultiSync PLUS has a maximum horizontal resolution of960 dots and a maxi-
mum vertical resolution of 720 lines for superior clarity of display.
• MultiSync PLUS offers both TTL and ANALOG signal inputs, and in the ANA-
LOG mode can display an unlimited palette of colors depending on the graph-
ics board and software being used.
• MultiSync PLUS features a TEXT SWITCH (TTL mode only) with a choice of
three colors (green, amber and paper white) displaying word processing, spread
sheets, databases or other software in crisp alphanumeric text
on a dark-bulb
black background.
• MultiSync PLUS has a
15 inch diagonal display and a large 14 inch viewing area.

ADJUSTING THE MULTISYNC PLUS CONTROLS
Before connecting the MultiSync PLUS with the IBM personal computers or com-
patibles and the IBM graphics adapters, take time to familiarize yourself with the
switches and controls that give the MultiSync PLUS all its capabilities. Chapters
1 and 2 outline the control and switches of the MultiSync PLUS. Page
11 shows
you how to connect the MultiSync PLUS with your IBM personal computer and graph-
ics adapter.

oMANUAL SWITCH
This switch selects either the IBM mode when OFF or the manual mode when
ON. When this switch is
OFF, MultiSync PLUS automatically works in the IBM
mode and adjusts itself to the scanning frequency, resolution and color require-
ments of the IBM compatible graphics adapter being used.
When this switch is ON, the user must manually select the number of colors
(8/16/64) needed by the graphics adapter being used with the COLOR SWITCH
(see
No.8 below). Refer to instructions accompanying the graphics adapter be-
ing used for information on how many colors the adapter can display.
8 COLOR SWITCH
The three color configurations (8/16/64 colors) necessary when using non-IBM
compatible graphics adapters can be set using the colorswitch as shown below.
Refer to instructions accompanying the graphics adapter being used for infor-
mation on how many colors the adapter can display.
COLOR MODE COLOR
SWITCH
8 colors 8
16 colors 16
64 colors 64
NOTE
This switch should be set correctly in relation to the input signal of the graphics
adapter being used. Refer to instructions accompanying the graphics adapter
for information
on the input signal and refer to No .• below.
8 TTL/ANALOG SWITCH
Used to select an input video signal-either TTL or ANALOG-of the graphics
adapter.
It is important to determine whether the input signal of the graphics adap-
ter being used is ANALOG or TTL prior to connecting the adapter with your the
MultiSync PLUS. Refer to instructions accompanying the graphics adapter for
information
on the input signal.
oBNC INPUT VOLTAGE SWITCH
Used to select an input video voltage-either 1.0Vp-p or O.7Vp-p-of the graph-
ics adapter. Refer to instructions accompanying the graphics adapter for infor-
mation on the input video voltage.
