NEC 1530V LCD on IIci with System 7.1

I was able to recently obtain a 15" NEC 1530 15" LCD display. It is white and matches my IIci nicely. I have a Radius Precision Color Xp nubus card. The resolutions listed at the following web page are all for 24-bit mode.

Can it support higher resolutions such as 1024 X 768 at lower bit depths? The native resolution on the NEC 1530V is 1024 X 768. Thus far I have been unable to get it to show up with the Radius. I am running 7.1 but do not yet have the Radiusware installed. The card does work though because I was able to see both the 13" RGB and a cheap Apple 14" Multiscan with no problem. With the NEC I have one of those silver adaptor boxes with the dip switches set to 1024 X 768. I have not yet tried any of the lower resolutions. I cannot seem to be able to bring up any resolution options in the monitor control panel, even when pressing options while pressing the options key. All I get are some Gamma choices. That's about it. When I last ran higher resolution monitors it was under 7.5.X so maybe the 7.1 monitors control panel does not accomodate the multisyncs so well.

Any tips?

thanks,

Brian

Have this same montitor in Black, and it does not work with my IICi. Only the Radius card comes up and it's a gray screen that says "Radius" in the corner with nothing else :(

Is your Radius Card the same one as mine and are you also running System 7.1? Also, are you using the RGB to VGA Adaptor with the resolution dip switches?

thanks,

Brian
