Displaying and Setting the Monitor Type
Setting the Monitor Type at Power On
If you replace your workstation’s monitor with a different monitor type, and
do not set the workstation’s graphics parameters by using the monitor com-
mand before doing so, you need to perform the following:
If your keyboard connects to the PS/2 connector on your system, wait 2 sec-
onds after the Num Lock light flashes near the end of the boot sequence,
then press
Tab to initiate the automatic monitor selection process.
If you have a keyboard that connects to the HIL connector on your system,
press Tab every three seconds during the boot sequence to initiate the auto-
matic monitor selection process.
Your system queries you for the new monitor type. Select the new type by
pressing
Enter. The system queries you to confirm your selection. Press y to
save this monitor type.
If you don’t press y, the system stops cycling. You can use the monitor
graphics command in the configuration menu to change monitor type.
