3.2.3 Signal Routing/Assignment of the USB-HID, Video and Audio Signals
The related video, audio, USB-HID and USB 2.0 signals are shown in color in the following figure. In the
Draco MV system, output 1 on the primary video/audio board is the main output for the main monitor.
The terms “main output” and “main monitor” are used in this manual, also the term “main window”. The
main window is relevant for some display modes and is displayed on the main monitor and the monitor 1 of
the secondary video/audio board. All terms are important to understand main functions and switching
methods of the Draco MV.
Example
The following figure shows the signal routing/assignment with an exemplary Dual-Head installation with four
monitors and audio devices.

Assignment of USB-HID and video signals
1 Primary video/audio board
2 Video output of the primary video/audio board
3 Main monitor - OUT1.1 (main output) - primary
video/audio board
4 Monitor 2 - OUT2.1 -secondary video/audio board
5 Audio output of the primary video/audio board
6 Audio 1 - OUT1.1 - primary video/audio board
7 Audio 2 - OUT2.1 - primary video/audio board
8 Secondary video/audio board
9 Video output of the secondary video/audio board
10 Monitor 1 - OUT1.2 - secondary video/audio board
11 Monitor 2 - OUT2.2 - secondary video/audio board
12 Audio output - secondary video/audio board
13 Audio 1 - OUT1.2 - secondary video/audio board
14 Audio 2 - OUT2.2 - secondary video/audio board
With Single-Head devices, the video outputs are named OUT1/OUT2 and the audio outputs are named 1/2.
The inputs and outputs of the primary video/audio board belong together. The same applies to the
secondary video/audio board. The boards themselves are not linked to each other.
The primary and secondary cards switch completely independently, but as such synchronously.
It is not possible to use input signals from the primary board on the output of the secondary board and vice
versa.
Therefore, always connect Single-Head sources and the main monitor on the primary video/audio board.
