in a single layout.
Figure 31. Aggregator mode
Aggregator prerequisites:
■
Make sure the
Fixed EDID
option is enabled. Aggregator mode requires
Fixed EDID.
■
Audio configuration – Review the computers’ Windows
®
audio settings to determine which DisplayPort
output is configured to use audio. Depending on the audio configuration, the following should be
considered:
Digital audio to displays with speakers: Make sure the computers are using the video output of the
graphics card as the sound source.
Digital audio to analog (
Headphone
or
Line Out
) – In the UltraLink Device Manager software,
select a Receiver and proceed to the
Audio
page. Make sure you select the proper
Headphone
audio source
and
Line Out audio source
for the
Video in
of the Transmitter.
Analog audio (
Line In
) – Verify where the desired
Line In
is coming from (for example,
Line In
from the Transmitter going to monitor 1, 2, 3, or 4), or if you want
Line In
to follow the mouse
position.
■
USB switching – By default, the mouse can be used to switch between sources. Keyboard shortcuts
can also be used to switch sources. To use ONLY keyboard shortcuts (no mouse), select the Receiver
in the UltraLink Device Manager software, go to the
Keyboard shortcuts
page, and enable the option
“
Use only keyboard shortcuts (no mouse) for USB switching”
.
■
Dynamic sources - The Transmitter source (stream from a computer) displayed on a monitor attached
to a Receiver in aggregator mode can be dynamically changed. This enables easy access to different
computers without affecting the streams going to the other displays.
Only one monitor can be selected for dynamic sourcing in aggregator mode. The other monitors
must be assigned to fixed sources.
Dynamic sources feature is only supported while aggregator mode is in use.
