with a Digital RGB monitor).
There are two common types of digital RGB monitor: one type will work
with the Apple III, Apple IIe (with RGB card), Apple IIc (with RGB
adaptor) and CGA on an IBM PC (different cables or adaptors are
required). This type has intensity and one bit each for red, green
and blue (16 colours in total).
The second type is usable with EGA. This has two bits each for red,
green and blue (64 colours in total). These monitors also have a
higher scan frequency than the first type, and cannot be used with an
Apple II (unless a card has been specially designed to use them).
Analog RGB monitors are mainly classified by the scan frequency and
resolution. The IIgs RGB monitor (A2M6014X) operates at similar
frequencies to television - around 15 kHz. Macintosh and VGA/SVGA RGB
monitors do not support such low scan rates, and typically work at
about 30 kHz or higher. The Mac cannot use the IIgs RGB monitor, and
the IIgs cannot use Mac/VGA RGB monitors.
Some third-party multisync monitors will work on the Mac/VGA and IIgs,
but these are very rare now. Most multisyncs do not go as low as 15 kHz.
"15 kHz" and "30 kHz" refers to the horizontal scan frequency - Apple
II video output has a horizontal retrace roughly 15,000 times per
second.
Vertical retrace is a different issue (it is much slower - usually 50
to 100 retraces per second), and most monitors are very flexible in
the supported vertical retrace rate, as far as I know.
This is also where "interlacing" comes in. Interlacing is a technique
which doubles the effective vertical resolution of the monitor, by
performing two vertical scans (fields) per frame, with a slight
vertical shift in the second field. The scan lines for the second
field are interleaved between the scan lines for the first field.
An interlaced display has more noticeable flicker than a
non-interlaced display with double the frame rate, because the
phosphor is only lit half as often.
For example, the Second Sight card will support a 400 line interlaced
mode with the IIgs RGB monitor. There will probably be noticeable
flicker in this mode (especially out of the corner of your eye).
This mode will have 60 fields (i.e. 30 frames) per second, whereas the
standard IIgs video output is non-interlaced with 60 frames per second
(but only 200 lines vertical resolution).
(I'm assuming 60 Hz mode - the IIgs also support 50 Hz mode, for use
in countries with 50 Hz mains supplies and TVs.)
Television also uses interlacing - with NTSC, there are 525 lines per
interlaced frame and 30 frames per second, with alternating lines
being scanned on each pass of the electron beam (262.5 lines per
field, 60 fields per second).
PAL uses 625 lines per frame, usually at 50 frames per second (312.5
lines per field, 25 fields per second).
