Note:

The 6185-H displays up to 256k colors (18-bit color).
Because most workstations only support 8-bit, 16-bit, or
24-bit color, you must operate the monitor in True Color
mode (24-bit color) to use the full color range of the
monitor. The monitor will interpret the colors correctly.
6185-J and 6185-K uses True Color (24-bit).

The 6185 Economy Line monitors can sample the input video signal and
set themselves up with a press of the AUTO setup button.

The AUTO setup function works with most screens using reasonable
video content, but Rockwell Automation provides a ScreenSet monitor
setup utility to display the best possible image.

Note:

The ScreenSet monitor setup utility is designed for 32-bit
Windows operating systems only (Windows 95/98/2000 or
Windows NT 4.0 or greater).
