ABSTRACT:
A video subsystem for a computer system comprising a video adapter and a video monitor electrically communicating over a display cable having at least two monitor identification lines. The three system components are designed such that after the video adapter reads the monitor identification from the monitor identification lines, the adapter and monitor reuse the monitor identification lines as a bidirectional serial link, over which large amounts and types of data may be transferred.
