2) Align the end of the connector cable with the Coax connector that is on the back of

the Logic element (see Figure 2-1 on Page 2-3). Connect the cable and secure it in
place by turning the retaining ring clockwise until it is tight.

The 1483 is designed to operate with color SVGA and/or VGA monitors, or
monochrome SVGA or VGA monitors. Depending on whether you have a color or
monochrome monitor, follow one of the procedures below to set up the screen before
you turn power on the first time.

1) Determine the type of monitor (SVGA, VGA, or combined SVGA/VGA) you have.

You will set the monitor to operate in SVGA or VGA mode.

2) Press and hold one of the following function keys while you turn the

Power-On/Off switch to On:

• F1 – Sets the monitor to color SVGA mode.

• F2 – Sets the monitor to color VGA mode (default).

• F7 – For multifrequency monitors that can operate up to 42 KHz, sets the vertical

refresh rate to 75 Hz.

1) Determine whether you have a 14-inch VGA or 15-inch SVGA monochrome monitor

(measured diagonally).

2) Press and hold one of the following function keys while you turn the Power-On/ Off

switch to On:

• F3 – Sets the monitor to 14-inch monochrome VGA mode with “color” menus

that display varying monochrome intensities in different fields. This mode is
preferred for US operation.

• F4 – Sets the monitor to 14-inch monochrome VGA mode with “color” menus

that display varying monochrome intensities. This setting gives a different set of
intensity defaults than those generated by pressing F3.

• F5 – Sets the terminal to 15-inch SVGA mode.

• F6 – Sets the monitor to 14-inch or 15-inch monochrome with overscan. (For

use only with monitors that support overscan).
