Additional Information

  • SS.Montr loads the hardware palette registers with the codes for the default color set for three types of monitors. The system default initializes the palette for a composite color monitor.
  • The monochrome mode removes color information from the signal sent to a monitor.
  • When a composite monitor is in use, a conversion table maps colors from RGB color numbers. In RGB and monochrome modes, the system uses the RGB color numbers directly.
  • The support modules for this call are VDGInt and GrfDrv.
