This article describes how to set up your Apple Studio Display 17-inch display to make the maximum number of resolutions available for use with older Power Macintosh computers.
DISCUSSION
- Power Macintosh 6100, 7100, and 8100 series
- PowerBook 1400 and 5300
- Power Macintosh 9500, 6200, 6300, and 6400 series
- some third-party video cards
If you are using any of the following computer models or graphics cards, you must turn off the DDC (Data Display Channel) control to make the maximum number of resolutions available.
For instance, if you are using any of the above computer models, or a third-party video card, and you are able to access only the 640 x 480 resolution setting, you must turn off the DDC control to access the rest of the resolution settings.
To turn off the DDC control:
1. Press the OSD Enter button on the left of the monitor. The main menu of the OSD, the Basic Adjustments menu, appears.
This menu contains the seven main control icons of the On-Screen Display: Basic Adjustments, Geometry, Image, Color, OSD Adjust, Language, and ETC.
These icons represent controls that you use to adjust the picture and the On-Screen Display window.
2. To access a control, use the left or right arrow buttons to highlight icons. When the icon you want becomes highlighted, press the Enter button.
Move the selection bar over the ETC icon and press the Enter button. Your choices are On or Off, select Off to disable DDC enabling more video resolutions to become available.
3. Press the OSD Exit button to leave the OSD function.
