Switch 1, LCD reverse or normal-This switch tells your
computer whether to display text on the screen in normal or
reverse mode. In normal mode, black characters are displayed on a
white background. In reverse mode, white characters are displayed
on a black background.
Switches 2 and 3, gray-scale mode-These two switches select one
of four available gray-scale modes. The gray-scale mode governs the
way color information is displayed on your LCD screen. In mode 0,
everything is displayed in black and white. For most of your work
with the Equity LT-286, you probably want to use mode 0. In
modes 1 and 2, information that appears in color on a color
monitor appears in various shades of gray on your LCD screen.
Modes 1 and 2 differ from each other only in the specific
assignment of colors to gray tones. The gray tone assignments
are shown in Table 1-2.
