-
- I have a 1080. I believe that the 1084 is the same.
-
- The A1080 has four inputs:
- - composite
- - chroma/luma
- - digital RGB
- - analog RGB
-
- It was intended to scan at NTSC rates; this means that it
- syncs to 15kHz.
-
- I have used this monitor to display CGA. I believe that it
- should also display EGA. Each of these uses the digital RGB
- inputs. VGA syncs at 32kHz and could not be used with this
- monitor.
-
- Hope this helps.
