+\usection{Setting Up the Color or Gray-Scale 4-Plane Graphics Option}
+
+If you have a monochrome monitor, use the instructions in this guide to
+install a color cable (packaged in the Upgrade kit) on the monitor.
+ If you ordered a new monitor with your Upgrade kit, first set it up as described in
+the monitor installation documentation, packaged with the monitor.
+ Then, after the Option is installed, follow the instructions in this guide.
+
+The VAXstation 2000 4-plane graphics coprocessor provides a 4-plane video
+Subsystem for the VAXstation 2000 System. This raster scan video Subsystem
+provides a resolution of 1024 by 864 pixels, and displays up to 16 gray-scales
+or 16 colors from a palette of 4096.
+
+A bitmap display provides variable character size or positioning and inherent
+graphics capability. The display provides about 850,000 pixels refreshed on
+the screen at 60 Hertz, thus preventing the flicker and smear of an interlaced
+display.
+
+\usection{Installing the Video Cable Assembly on a Monochrome Monitor}
+
+If you have a VR260 or VR150 monochrome monitor with a 4-plane graphics
+coprocessor to display gray-scale on your screen, you will need to install a
+color video cable assembly on your monitor.
+
+First, locate the video cable assembly shown in Figure 1 (part no. BC19S).
+\fig{MLO-1263-87}{Color Video Cable Assembly, BC19S}
+
+The following sections describe the installation process for the VR260 and
+VR150 respectively.

+video icon. Insert the cable with the video-icon side of the monitor cable
+facing you.
+\item Tighten the thumbscrews on the monitor video cable by turning them
+clockwise with your hngers (Figure 7).
+\end{enumerate}
+\textbf{Caution: Before connecting the monitor cable to the System, make sure
+the system's power supply is turned off.}
+\fig{MLO-2117-87}{Tightening the Thumbscrews on the Monitor Cable}
+
+
+\usection{Testing Your System}
+The VAXstation 2000 diagnostic tests are stored in the VAXstation 2000 read-
+only memory. After every power up, the VAXstation 2000 automatically Starts
+the System tests, which check the components of your System. The following
+section describes some of the diagnostic tests available on the VAXstation
+2000.
+ For more information, see the \textit{VAXstation 2000 Hardware Installation
+Guide.}
+
+If you are going to perform diagnostic tests, make sure that both the monitor
+and System unit power supplies are turned on.
+
+\usubsection{A Note on Diagnostics}
+In diagnostics, a Single question mark precedes additional Status information.
+An example of Status information is:
+
+{\tt ? 4 00D0  0009.0213}
+
+This example indicates that there is a 4-plane coprocessor present in the
+System with a monochrome monitor and a color cable.
+
+If the 4-plane module has a fatal error, the monitor screen will remain blank.
+
+\textbf{Note: If your monitor does not display any information on the screen after
+the power-up test sequence, you may have a failure in your video board
+and/or other failures.  Check the LEDs on your keyboard for secondary
+power-up error messages. If any of the LEDs in Table 1 are lit, call your
+service representative.}
