DIP SWITCHES

Switch Descriptions

1.The rotary knob and DIP switches 1, 3, 4, and 8 set the resolution of the monitor and computer.

2.DIP switches 5 and 6 set external sync. For Mac IIci, IIsi, IIvi, IIvx, or any computer that uses “sync on green”, these are to be turned OFF. For all other computers, they are to be turned ON.

3.DIP switch 7 is composite sync and it is rarely used. Try turning it on and observe if it improves results.

SETTING THE SWITCH POSITIONS

Table 1 on the next page lists the various Macintosh models and the possible switch settings. If your Mac is not listed here, please select the model closest to it.

Select a column that has an ”X” in it, and refer to Table 2 to check if your monitor supports the resolution(s) listed. Then, select a switch setting that both your monitor and your Mac can support.

Settings B, H, and I in Table 1 and 2 are multimode settings, the others are fixed mode. This means that you can change resolutions in the Macintosh Apple® Menu under “Control Panel/Monitors” without having to restart the computer. In “Control Panel/Monitors”, more selections are available on many Mac models by pressing the “Option” key on the keyboard while clicking on the “OPTIONS” button on the screen.

Note: Restart the computer each time the rotary and switch settings are changed.

The ON position in the DIP switches is the “up” position.

The first setting, “3 / All off”, is a fixed-mode setting. It is the only setting that will work with the Mac IIci and IIsi. Older non-SVGA monitors cannot support the resolution this setting produces.
