S connected to a computer'
S video output. A monitor may be either
monochrome (black and white) or colour (
RGB). Colour monitor
S may
Show either digital colour (each of the red, green and blue
Signal
S may be either on or off, giving eight po
SSible colour
S: black, white, red, green, blue, cyan, magenta and yellow) or analog colour (red, green and blue
Signal
S are continuou
Sly variable allowing any combination to be di
Splayed). Digital monitor
