5.10 diamond - Configuring the Virtual Extension
If the console includes the Virtual Extension option, then the GUI software runs on a host PC that must be provided by the
customer. The host PC connects to Power Core via the IP network. Each VX module connects to the host PC via Display
Port and USB. A single host PC can support up to 6 VX displays.
The example below shows a single diamond frame fitted with two VX modules.
The instructions below describe how to configure the host PC and make the connections.
1.
The diamond VX software runs on a Windows PC that must be supplied by the customer.
A single PC can support multiple displays, depending on its
specification. For
information about the host PC requirements,
please read the following document:
Vistool PC Config.pdf
.
If the diamond surface includes multiple frames with more than 6 displays, then it is recommended to install a second host
PC (with an additional license).
2.
The host PC must connect to Power Core via the control network.
3.
Each VX display connects to the host PC via Display Port and USB, and is powered by its own external DC power
supply.
For more information about the DC power supply, see diamond - Power Supplies.
