| My comment: |
|
The GetMonitorCapabilities function fails if the monitor does not support the Display Data Channel (DDC/CI).
* * *
That is what the function returns for SyncMaster T240:
The capabilities flags value is 7199 (1110000011111).
There are currently 13 capabilities flags defining which high-level configuration function is supported by this monitor including GETs and/or SETs for brightness, color temperature, contrast, display area position & size, factory defaults and more.
The color temperature flags value is 129 (10000001), which indicates support for 4000K and 11500K color temperatures. |
