'''0''' – PCWclassic monochrome: '''2 colors, 720x256'''.
'''1''' – Groups bits 2 by 2, giving '''4 colors; 360x256'''.''User could choose and recolour classic PCW software.''''N SuperGameBoy style.''
'''2''' – Same as 4-bit. '''16 colors, 180x256'''.''Useful on Interactive Fiction text Adventures with Graphic Window.''
'''3''' – 8x1 attribute mode, as Timex/Thomson/MSX/... 8+8 bits are read, the first 8 are background and ink (4+4) and the next 8 are the bitmap. This allows for '''16 colors in 360x256''', at the cost of using only 2 different colors every 8x1 pixel. Due to the delay, the screen shifts one character to the right.''Reminds N GameBoyColor DX recolouring.''
'''4''' – Experimental, unofficial: '''90x256''', with '''256 direct colors''' from the 8-bit palette. It therefore ignores the color palette. Enterprise-style, not particularly useful, but colorful.
Regarding the interface:
* PCW Plus is currently supported by the '''ZEsarUX''' and '''CP/M Box''' emulators and . And by numerous FPGA board cores thanks to Steddyman; Rampa; Albconde and ManuTeira ('''Mister'''; '''SIDI'''; '''Poseidon'''; '''Calypso'''; '''NeptUNO+''' ; '''Mist''' ), and . And by '''Czarnikjak's color add-on''' board for real PCWclassic using RaspberryPico.
