For a single display configuration, you must always attach the display to the
display connector on the Image Adapter/A and not to the system-unit display connector.
The three versions of the Image Adapter/A support IBM analog displays equipped with a 15-pin direct-drive analog interface.
It can be installed in any IBM PS/2 Micro Channel system unit, except portable models.
Image-I Adapter/A
The Image-I Adapter/A is a high-resolution adapter, capable of driving displays up to 230 MHz, with a maximum screen addressability of 1600x1280 pels.
The Image-I Adapter/A is available in 3MB only and is International Organization for Standardization (ISO) enabled.
The Image-I Adapter/A supports only ISO refresh rates. It does not support non ISO displays.
It can be installed in all IBM PS/2 system units except portable models. ISO enabled IBM display types - 6091-016, 6091-19i, 1091-051, 4517 and the 9504 Monochrome Display. These displays conform with industry and government standards, such as ISO standard 9241/3.
The display attached to the Image Adapter can show VGA graphics only if the adapter is installed in the AVEC slot. Ideally, the Image Adapter should be installed in the AVEC slot unless this slot is already in use (e.g. with an 8514/A Adapter).
