1. Connecting the Output devices
1.1 Programming Monitor
The Monitor MUST HAVE at least a resolution of 1920x1080 @ 60Hz with a connection either DVI, HDMI, VGA
or DP. Whenever you connect a monitor without rebooting/booting and it is not recogniced you have to press
“CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+S” , call “SCREEN SETUP” on the Touch interface or press “3.2 Reset System Outputs” on the
MDC-Launcher. If you do not see any output or only a part of the screen check the SETUP page and RESOLUTION
settings on MDC-Touch by connecting via Remote-Desktop or Browser (requires MDC-Touch Remote License). Note
that you have to reboot as the system tells you after you changes the values. By default the resolution is set to
1920x1080@60Hz. If your need an adapter for your Monitor (if it does not have a DP connection) we recommend
adapters made by “DeLock” (www.delock.de).
•
DP->HDMI (DeLock Art.: 61849)
•
DP->DVI (DeLock Art.: 61847)
•
DP->VGA (DeLock Art.: 61848)
All adapters are passive due to the fact that the MDC offers DP++ ports.
Note: The Programming Monitor is optional and not required during playback of shows. Programming of shows can
also be done with remote desktop software depending on the quality of you network.
1.2 Projector(s)
After you connected the projector for the first time please power it on before you turn on the MDC-X. Please note
that some projectors do have a very long LAMP ON/OFF timeout depending on the last state of the lamp and the
shutdown integrity - it may happen that the LAMP ON/OFF command (sent by TOUCH) is ignored if it was called to
early. Later on you can control (ON/OFF) the Projector remotely by using MDC-Touch, DMX or OSC.
Notes on the connectors:
•
HDMI output supports DVI-D with optional adapter.
•
How to convert DisplayPort into HDMI/DVI:
The DisplayPort outputs can be converted to HDMI or DVI by an additional, passive adapter cable. For example:
DELOCK 82590: 1m, DisplayPort (male, 20p) to HDMI-A (male, 19p) DELOCK 82435: 5m, DisplayPort (male, 20p)
to DVI-D (male, 24p)- The integrated graphics automatically detects the connected display and puts out the
appropriate electric signal - either through DisplayPort (without an adapter) or HDMI/DVI (with an adapter).
However, a monitor with a DisplayPort connector cannot be connected to the HDMI port with a simple, passive
adapter.
DO NOT CONNECT ANY DISPLAY SPLITTERS (DUAL OR TRIPLE HEAD UNITS) TO ONE OF THE DISPLAY/
OUTPUT CONNECTORS!
DO NOT CONNECT THE MONITOR, PROJECTOR AND MIRROR HEAD TO ANY OTHER CONNECTOR THAN
THE ONE SHOWN ON THE ILLUSTRATIONS!
