April 16, 2001

=====================================================
1)  NOTES

Please do not contact ATI Technical Support or other ATI departments for 
assistance with this software provided here.  They will not have sufficient 
information to be able to provide technical assistance.

Contact the manufacturer of your display device for the specific data for the 
mode you wish to use.  See Monitor Manufacturer site below.  If your 
manufacturer is not list contact your retailer.

The ATI Mode maker allows you to design custom display modes (timing and 
resolution) for your RADEON graphics card. Custom display modes created in this 
way are assumed by the display driver to be compatible with your monitor. It is 
possible through the incorrect use of this utility to create modes which could 
substantially damage a monitor. For this reason it is essential that all timing 
information used to create custom modes be compatible with your display device. 
Check the manual for your display device and/or your display device manufacturer 
to determine compatible timings for your device.

ATI assumes no liability for modes created with this utility. Use at your own 
risk.


=====================================================
2)  INSTRUCTIONS

Modes are set for each display device, thus if your system is dual display 
capable, you can use the Device menu to specify which device you wish to set a 
custom mode for.

the Modify button to save to changes.

No changes will be final unless you Apply them, or use the File --> Save & Exit 
option.

To add a new mode.

1.  Run ModeMaker.exe.

    will enter the desired resolution (Width and Height) and refresh rate. 
4.  Once the values have been entered click OK.

    properties.

       or V. Sync Polarity
    b) Enter the Horizontal Total - the total number of pixels
    c) Enter the Horizontal Display - the visual width of the mode
    d) Enter the Horizontal Sync Start Value - the horizontal point at which the 
       image will start
    e) Enter the Horizontal Sync Width - the amount of time that the horizontal 
       sync pulse is active
