1. Introduction
The Sonnet Sonata SD graphics card offers Macintosh users an easy and affordable way to add a
connection for a second (or third) display. Because we realize that old monitors are often used for
a second display, the Sonata SD is designed to support most analog monitors, even if yours is an
old 13", or even a portrait display. The Sonata SD card's controls are fully integrated into the Mac
operating system and we've put significant effort into designing this product so that it is simple to
operate. The end result is a product which requires no special knowledge to operate; you configure
the settings in System Preferences (Mac OS X users) or Control Panels (Mac OS 7–9 users).
This manual details the installation procedure for the card and accompanying software, and
provides basic operating information using standard Mac OS features. We recommend that you
read this document before you start installing the Sonata SD graphics card. Also, before
proceeding with the installation, we recommend that you make a backup of important information
on your hard drive.
