Why is My NI 145x CVS Outputing a Monochrome Picture from the VGA Port?

Primary Software: Vision Builder for Automated Inspection
Primary Software Version: 2.0
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software:

Problem: I am using Vision Builder AI 2.0 and the NI 145x Compact Vision System (CVS). When I download my program to the CVS, the picture on the monitor that is connected to the VGA port is monochrome. Howeber, the picture being displayed in Vision Builder AI is a color picture.

Solution: You can change the ouptut settings of the VGA port from the menu option Tools » Remote Target Options. The Color Quality option in the Video Mode tab configures the output quality of the VGA port. If you change this mode from 8 bits, the monitor will display a color image. The CVS system will start up with the most recently downloaded default settings.
