Abstract
A monitor flywheel control for use in adjustment of the color monitor display includes a flywheel type bit generator to replace the conventional adjusting pushbuttons and knobs so that by use of a micro-controller technique, a single flywheel control knob which is both rotatable and depressible can be used to perform all the desired adjustment of the computer monitor display.
