Abstract
Abstract Data processing apparatus including a display monitor operable in response to a display signal of predetermined frequency and a computer for transmitting a display signal to the display monitor. The display monitor generates an identifier signal indicating the predetermined frequency at which the display monitor operates. The computer means uses the identifier signal to determine the frequency of the display signal.
