About
The MDSC-8255 can have multiple video inputs connected. Switching between the different inputs can
be done easily with the Source shortkey ( ).
Futhermore, if more than one video source is connected, the Picture in Picture (PiP) functionality becomes
available, allowing you to view two different video inputs at once. Please refer to "2
nd
Picture Mode", page
27 and "2
nd
Picture Source", page 28 for more information.
Beside the video input connections, the MDSC-8255 also has video output capabilities allowing you to
loop-through or duplicate the screen content on the DVI output port, allowing an easy connection with
another display, projector, video recorder, ...
This chapter describes how to connect the different video interface types to the MDSC-8255.

To connect the interfaces
1. Connect one or more video source(s) to the corresponding video inputs of the display.
UHD 4K video can be connected in two ways:
- 1 x DisplayPort 1.2 MST connected to the Main DisplayPort input or,
- 2 x DisplayPort 1.1 connected to the Main and 2
nd
DisplayPort input, where each input drives one
half (right/left) of the screen.
Warning:
DisplayPort VESA DP 1.2 certi
fi
ed cables for 5.4 Gbps HBR2 are recommended.
2. When the SDI video input is connected, an additional SDI video sink can be connected to the SDI output
(= SDI input loop-through).
3. Screen image clone: The entire active image on the screen (including OSD) can be duplicated to a
FHD (1080p/1080i) signal on the DVI output connector, to which an additional DVI video sink can be
connected.
Note:
The DVI output must be enabled in the OSD menu (please refer to "DVI output", page 32).
