CIM_MonitorResolution class

The CIM_MonitorResolution class represents the relationship between horizontal and vertical resolutions and the refresh rate and scan mode for a desktop monitor. Values are specified in the video controller object.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all inherited properties. Properties are listed in alphabetic order, not MOF order.

• Properties

Properties

The CIM_MonitorResolution class has these properties.

Caption

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (64)

Short textual description of the current object.

This property is inherited from CIM_Setting.

Description

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Textual description of the current object.

This property is inherited from CIM_Setting.

HorizontalResolution

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_VideoController.CurrentHorizontalResolution"), MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Monitor Resolutions|002.2"), Units ("pixels")

Monitor's horizontal resolution, in pixels.

MaxRefreshRate

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_VideoController.MaxRefreshRate"), MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Monitor Resolutions|002.7"), Units ("hertz")

Monitor's maximum refresh rate, in hertz, when a range of rates is supported at the specified resolutions.

MinRefreshRate

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_VideoController.MinRefreshRate"), MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Monitor Resolutions|002.6"), Units ("hertz")

Monitor's minimum refresh rate, in hertz, when a range of rates is supported at the specified resolutions.

RefreshRate

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_VideoController.CurrentRefreshRate"), MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Monitor Resolutions|002.4"), Units ("hertz")

Monitor's refresh rate, in hertz. If a range of rates is supported, use the MinRefreshRate and MaxRefreshRate properties, and set this property to 0.

ScanMode

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_VideoController.CurrentScanMode"), MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Monitor Resolutions|002.5")

Scan mode that the monitor uses.
