Connect the first monitor
If your monitor has a DisplayPort
connector, use a mini DisplayPort to
DisplayPort adapter included with your
product to connect your monitor cable to
the mini DisplayPort connector labeled
1
on
the bracket of your Matrox card.
If your monitor has a DVI connector, use a
DisplayPort to DVI-D adapter included
with your product to connect your monitor
cable to the mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort
adapter.
Note:
Monitors are numbered consecutively based on which
connector each is attached to. Numbering starts with the
primary display
– the one that first displays information
when you restart your computer. If another graphics card is
installed in your computer, display numbering may be
different.
WARNING:
To avoid damaging the
DisplayPort connector on your DisplayPort
monitor cable or on your graphics
hardware, carefully remove the DisplayPort
cable by pressing the latch on the top of the
DisplayPort connector while removing the
connector.
