Default Screen Resolutions

The Creator system reads the VESA standard Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) from the monitor to determine the default screen resolution. If the EDID data is not available for the monitor, the monitor ID sense code is used to determine the default screen resolution.

Table 4-1 lists the default screen resolutions by monitor ID sense code.

Table 4-1 Creator Graphics Accelerator Monitor Sense Codes

Code	Screen Resolution
7	1152 x 900 at 66 Hz
6	1152 x 900 at 76 Hz
5	1024 x 768 at 60 Hz
4	1280 x 1024 at 67 Hz
3	1152 x 900 at 66 Hz
2	1280 x 1024 at 76 Hz
1	1152 x 900 at 66 Hz
0	1024 x 768 at 77Hz

If the Creator system is unable to determine the monitor type, such as for non-Sun monitors, it defaults to a resolution of 1152 x 900 at 66 Hz.
