Configuring single and dual monitor support
Your connection device features two digital video interface (DVI) connectors. See
the tables below that apply for your connection device to determine which
connectors you want to use, then connect the monitor or monitors to the connection
device. If the signal cable on your monitor has a VGA-type connector, you can use
a DVI-to-VGA cable connector to connect the monitor to the connection device DVI
connector.
Note: When using a CRT monitor, the maximum video resolution for the connection
device is 1280x1024 at 85Hz.
When using dual monitors, you can use both monitors to display an extended
desktop. You will need to configure the video driver in the operating system on the
host system for dual monitor support. For more information on configuring the video
driver to use dual monitors, see the documentation for the operating system that is
installed on the host system.
Note: Enabling dual monitor configuration disables video redirection from a host
blade workstation to the management module on the BladeCenter unit. This
affects using KVM on the host blade workstation for remote control and for
using a console attached to the management module on the BladeCenter
unit.
The following three tables describe the functionality of the connection device when
connecting to a host system with the NVIDIA FX 1600M graphics adapter.
