Abstract

A convergence device system comprising a display monitor subsystem, a computer subsystem coupled to the display monitor subsystem, and a convergence functionality module adapted to provide a video signal to the computer subsystem. The display monitor subsystem is selectably operable in one of a first functional mode and a second functional mode, responsive to a control signal generated by the computer subsystem, wherein each of the modes corresponds to a set of selected display settings for the display monitor subsystem.
