Configuring Monitors Using the PROM Method

The following example uses the PROM method to configure the TurboGXplus for a resolution of 1280 x 1024 at 67 Hz.

Example 1-5 PROM Method

ok nvedit
0: probe-sbus														(or probe-all)

1: : vsetup " 117000000,71691,67,16,112,224,1280,2,8,33,1024,COLOR,0OFFSET" ;

2: vsetup 4

3: " /sbus/cgsix@1" " override" execute-device-method drop

4: install-console

5: banner

6: ^C

ok nvstore

ok setenv use-nvramrc? true

ok setenv fcode-debug? true

Table 1-4 contains codes for TurboGXplus-supported resolutions:
