Great little card. Despite it's age and simplicity it works very well in early systems (XT, 286). I used to have this card in my ARC ProTurbo 88 until I switched over to a CGA-card + monitor to obtain true CGA-graphics.

If you're looking for the dip-switch configuration:

Switch 1 Monitor Type. ON: Multi frequency, OFF: Standard VGA
Switch 2 VGA Mode Switching Style. ON: PS/2 Style - All modes available on all monitors, OFF: PC/AT Style - color on color, mono on mono
Switch 3 Not used - Set to OFF
Switch 4 (Not VGA Plus) 8bit vs 16bit AutoSense. ON: Auto sense 8/16bitBIOS access, OFF: Force 8bit BIOS access

There is also a 16-bit ISA version of this card.
