<h2>A note on monitors</h2>
|
||||
<p>Passive RGB-to-VGA adapters output the Atari's native timings, so color modes (ST Low and ST Medium) need a monitor that can lock to a 15 kHz horizontal sync signal. See my <a href="/retro/atari-monitor-compatibility/">monitor compatibility</a> page for which modern panels actually work. Mono mode (ST High) works on any standard VGA display.</p>

||||
<p>A 3-port VGA switch box routes the shared Dell monitor between the different machines:</p>
