The fact that NEC provided an adapter to go between its
monitor and
the typical
VGA card suggests that this is not an unusual application for their products.
Most of the early NEC Multisync series (original, II, GS,
plus others) allowed various digital and analog modes to be switch
selectable. They would also sync low enough to be used on various
pre-VGA video adapters. I believe that the original Multsync
included the additional switches to specify the color depth as
described in previous posts here, while later models did not. I
don't recall my GS having them. An excellent monitor
btw...paperwhite grayscale.
