DVI-D Cables
When connecting DVI-D cables, the controller and Display devices must be powered down. DVI-D
connection requires Extended Display Identification Data (EDID), which is detected at startup.
1. Connect the smaller connector of each of the Display Port to DVI Adapter cables to the display module
connectors on the rear panel (Figure 3-5).
2. Connect the other end of each cable to a DVI extension cable (not supplied). Connect the extension cable
to your display devices in any convenient order.
3. Power up the display devices.
4. Power up the Controller. An application will open that allows the user to configure the display devices. For
details, refer to Section 3.5.1 Power ON Controller.
No DVI signal
If you do not see output on any of the display devices, it is possible there is a problem with the EDID.
1. Power down the Controller. For details, refer to Section 3.5.2 Power OFF Controller.
2. Change cables or re-seat connectors.
3. Power up the Controller and confirm the configuration is correct.
3.4 Connecting Peripheral Devices
1. Connect the keyboard and mouse to
any of the USB ports (within dashed
rectangle in Figure 3-6 or the 3 ports
on the front panel in Figure 3-8).
2. Connect CAT5 Ethernet cable(s)
(circled in Figure 3-6). This step is
only required if you are connecting to
1 or more networks.
3. Connect any peripheral devices, such
as USB or serial components, to the
appropriate connectors on the rear
and/or front panel.
