Setting The Monitor Type At Power On - HP Visualize J2240 Service Handbook

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 command before do-
ing so, you need to perform the following:
If your keyboard connects to the PS/2 connector on your system, wait 2 seconds after
the Num Lock light flashes near the end of the boot sequence, then press Tab to initi-
ate the automatic monitor selection process.
NOTICE: It takes approximately one to two minutes after pow-
ering on the workstation before the Num Lock light
flashes.
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 automatic monitor selec-
tion process.
The system cycles through all of the available monitor types one at a time. When you
can see a message similar to the following clearly and legigbly, select that monitor
type by pressing
Enter

Press [RETURN] to select this monitor type (type n of n types).
The system queries you to confirm your selection. Press Y to save this monitor type.
If you press any key other than Y, the following message is displayed:
Monitor type not saved.
At this point, the new monitor type is active, but not saved. Because you didn't save
the monitor type, the next time you reboot the system the original monitor type will
be used.
Next, the following message is displayed:
To select a new Graphics Monitor Type press the <TAB> key now, otherwise
EXIT by entering any other key (or will time out in 15 seconds)...
To restart the monitor selection process, press TAB.
