Setmonitor

I am trying to use the "setmonitor" routine to switch our 4D to
30 Hz, sync on green mode while I grab the video with another device.
I wrote a very simple program to attempt this:
#include <gl/gl.h>
#include <gl/get.h>
main()
{
short mtype;
int ch;
mtype = HZ30_SG;
setmonitor( mtype ); /* switch to 30 Hz */
while( (ch=getchar()) != '\n' ); /* wait for a CR */
mtype = HZ60;
setmonitor( mtype ); /* switch back to normal */
}
It compiles nicely, but upon execution I get an "invalid argument" error
message from both "setmonitor" calls. Anyone run into this before?? Any
ideas on why this desn't work??
Thanks,
-John
