Simultaneous display mode
The 65550 VGA BIOS supports monochrome LCD, EL, color
TFT and STN LCD flat panel displays. It also supports interlaced
and non-interlaced analog monitors (VGA color and VGA
monochrome) in high-resolution modes while maintaining
complete IBM VGA compatibility. Digital monitors (i.e. MDA,
CGA, and EGA) are NOT supported. Multiple frequency
(multisync) monitors are supported as analog monitors.
Both CRT and panel displays can be used simultaneously. The
PCM-5862E/5862EL can be set in one of three configurations: on
a CRT, on a flat panel display, or on both simultaneously. The
system is initially set to simultaneous display mode. In the utility
diskette, there are three .COM files that can be used to select the
display. Simply type the filename at the DOS prompt:
CT.COM Enables CRT display only
FP.COM Enables panel display only
SM.COM Enables both displays at the same time.
Sleep mode
The display driver diskette contains two files that support sleep
mode. Simply type the filename at the DOS prompt:
ON.COM switches to normal display mode.
OFF.COM switches to sleep mode.
