6. Connect the workstation card to your network using the Ethernet port.
7. Using the appropriate cables, connect the graphics card to the
workstation
card. To get a desired resolution, all the components of
your system (workstation card, graphics card, zero client, and
monitors) must support this resolution. In addition, the cables must be
connected according to the following rules:
•
Always start with the
lowest
number graphics card port of that type
(DisplayPort or DVI) and work up sequentially from there.
•
IMPORTANT!
For 2560x1600 resolution, you must use DisplayPort
ports on the workstation’s graphics card when connecting to the
workstation card.
•
If you are using a DVI graphics card, the maximum resolution
supported is 1920x1200. The DVI-mDP cable shipped with the
workstation card supports single-link data rates only. This means
that even if the DVI port on the graphics card is a dual-link port, you
will still be limited to single-link resolution (i.e., up to 1920x1200).
Setting up the PCoIP Zero Client
Depending on the model, a PCoIP Zero Client may have DisplayPort ports
or DVI ports. To achieve the highest resolution supported by your system, it
is important to connect the ports on the zero client correctly. The following
instructions explain how to connect 2560x1600 resolution monitors to zero
clients.
PCoIP Zero Clients with DisplayPort ports:
1. Check the graphics-card-to-workstation-card connections to see which
ports on the workstation card are used.
2. Connect port
1
on the zero client to the primary monitor using a
DisplayPort cable.
3. To connect the secondary monitor, use a second DisplayPort cable to
connect the port on the zero client that matches the port number used
for the second graphics-card-to-workstation-card connection.
8.
Replace the chassis cover and reconnect power cables.
9.
Start up the host PC.
10. Ensure the workstation card is installed correctly by checking that
the heartbeat LED at the back of the card is continuously flashing red.
