Accessing the Configuration Options
On the
nView Display Mode
panel, the monitor image numbered
1
represents
the primary display device.
In
Standard (Dualview)
mode, only one monitor image appears.
In
Clone
and
Span
modes, the monitor image numbered
1
represents the
primary display device and the monitor image numbered
2
represents the
secondary display device.
To access nView configuration options, use any
one
of these procedures:
• Right click the monitor image (
1
or
2
) to display a pop-up menu, and than
click the option you want.
• Click the down arrow in the
Display
field to select the display device (i.e.,
nView Display 1 or nView Display 2) you want to configure. Then click
Device Settings
to display a menu of options and choose the option you
want.

up menu that appears when you right click the monitor image on the
nView Display Mode panel in Clone and Span modes.
Force detection of a monitor. .
If this option appears on your nView Display
Mode panel, click to check it
only
if you have a monitor connected to the
secondary display connector that is not being detected. This is useful for older
monitors or monitors with BNC connectors.
Clone Mode
Note:
Clone Mode does not work if you have only one display device attached.
In Clone mode, two monitors display identical images, which is useful for
presentations. A presenter may use the smaller monitor on the podium, while a
projector monitor reflects the presentation to the audience.
The example in this section starts with the analog display (CRT) as the primary
display and TV or digital display as the secondary display.
