I have a monitor with five BNC connectors. Why won't it
work with my ATI Graphics Accelerator?
•
For a cable with five BNC connectors, ensure that they are
all connected to the monitor. If only three of the cables are
connected (i.e., R, G, and B), the monitor is expecting a
Sync-on-Green (SOG) signal.
•
Some monitors may have a switch to set the monitor to
either SOG or separate sync. If the switch is set to SOG, the
monitor will show a scrambled display. Setting the switch
to separate/composite sync may resolve the problem.
•
A number of BNC cables, even though they are designed
for Mac OS computers, do not supply the sense code
needed by the graphics card. Using an adapter that sets the
appropriate sense code should solve the problem.
BNC cables do not pass DDC information to the ATI Graphics
Accelerator.
Does the ATI Graphics Accelerator work in all Power
Macintosh computers?
•
No, the ATI Graphics Accelerator only works in PCI or
AGP based Power Macintosh computers with a PCI
(33MHz or 66MHz) or AGP expansion slot. The minimum
system requirements for your specific ATI Graphics
Accelerator are listed in the
“What you’ll need”
section of
the User’s Guide.

Due to the unique design of the Apple
®
G4 Cube, ATI
Graphics Accelerator will not fit into these systems.
