Many color EGA and early multisync monitors could switch between full color, green monochrome, and simulated amber monochrome modes, because these monitors could also be driven with MDA, Hercules, and EGA monochrome video signals. Others didn't give you a choice of color, such as my Mitsubishi AUM-1381A Diamond Scan monitor -- if you feed it with a monochrome signal, it automatically switches into simulated amber phosphor mode.
