Connecting video displays
The unit provides full DVI/I connections for video outputs. This means that it can
transfer any VGA or DVI signal (from analog to single or dual link digital) up to
the following maximum resolutions and rates:
• Analog: 1920 x 1200 x 60Hz
• Single link digital: 1920 x 1200 x 60Hz (up to 165MHz pixel clock)
• Dual link digital: 2560 x 1600 x 60Hz (up to two times 165MHz pixel clock)
Generally, all video signals should be of the same type, i.e. all analog or
all digital (and the monitor should correspondingly be of the correct type).
However, there are certain situations where mixing of different video types is
possible - contact technical support for more details.
The use of EDID information (automatically provided by the video display) could
cause issues in certain high security installations - please see the
section for further details).
To connect a video display
1 Wherever possible, ensure that power is disconnected from the unit and the
host computer(s) to be connected.
2 As appropriate, connect either a digital or analog video display to the DVI/I
socket on the far left side of the rear panel:
•
Digital
Connect the digital video display cable to the port labeled
within the user console section on the rear panel.
•
Analog
Connect a converter module to the port labeled within the
user console section on the rear panel. Connect the analog video display
cable to the converter module. In both cases, ensure that the securing
screws are used to maintain reliable links.
3 Connect the plug at the other end of the cable to the corresponding video
output socket of the appropriate host computer.
