1.      Introduction

        If a WINNER graphics board and a second, non-VGA graphics board
        (e.g. WINNER 1280) are used at the same time, they may be
        connected via the feature connector.

        Usually only the VGA hardware color palettes is programmable.
        This can cause incorrect colors to be displayed by the secound
        graphics boards.

        The SNOOP program allows to choose wether only the color palette
        on the VGA board or both color palettes can be programmed.

	You should select "SNOOP OFF" before running Windows or other
	high resolution applications on the PCI WINNER graphics board.


------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.      Supported Graphics Boards

	The following ELSA graphics boards are supported by the program
        SNOOP.EXE in the latest version:

                WINNER 3000-L


------------------------------------------------------------------------

3.      Using SNOOP

	Command line syntax:

		SNOOP [ON/OFF]

	Command line parameters:

        ON:  The color palettes of both graphics boards will be
	     programmed.

	     This setting is used to display the VGA screen via the
	     feature connector on the monitor connected to the second
	     graphics board.


        OFF: Only the color palette of the VGA graphics boards will be
	     programmed.

	     This setting is used to display high resolution graphics
	     (Windows, CAD etc.) on the monitor connected to the WINNER
	     VGA board.


	(none): The SNOOP program will display a help screen an the
	     current setting when called without command line
	     parameters.

4.      Cable connection

        Connect the ELSA VGA-board with the flat conductor cable to
        the second graphics board. The cable have to be twisted one times.
