REAL COLOR AND MONOCHROME 16 LCD PROJECTION PANELS
C. Special Guidelines for IBM
C.1 IBM Computers with Two Display
Cards
If your computer has both a color
and monochrome display, you may
need to turn on the color card.
Because your computer will only
display on one monitor at a time,
you need to ensure that the color
display is on when using the
Projection Panel.
You can do this in a variety of ways.
Some computers require special
commands other than
MS-DOS ® commands. The best
reference for finding these
commands is your computer
manual.
See Section C.2 for instructions
on how to setup a color or
monochrome display.

and Compatibles
For most IBM and IBM
compatibles:
1. Follow the instructions for
setting up the Projection Panel.
2. Insert your MS-DOS disk in drive
A. (Skip this step if you have a
hard drive.)
3. When the DOS prompt appears,
type MODE CO80
(CO for color, the number 80
for 80 columns).
4. The color card should be
activated.
If you have a monochrome
monitor and want to switch back,
at the DOS prompt, type:
MODE MONO
The Projection Panel will go off
and your monochrome monitor
will come on.
