Using X.info to display Convert DVI information
Monitoring your Convert DVI’s operating
temperatures
As shown in the X.info Hardware section, the Convert DVI page displays the
current and maximum operating temperatures for your Matrox Convert DVI
hardware. To avoid damage to your Matrox Convert DVI, make sure that you
don’t operate your Convert DVI at or near the maximum temperature for a
prolonged period of time. You should target your Convert DVI to operate at least
10°C below the maximum operating temperature.
You should monitor the temperature of your Convert DVI periodically and take
measures as needed to lower the room temperature and/or make sure that the
Convert DVI is not close to a heat source and the ventilation holes are not
obstructed.
Error notification
X.info provides temperature warnings and warnings for other possible Convert
DVI hardware problems. Once X.info has detected a hardware problem, the
Matrox X.info Notification dialog box will be displayed to give you details of
the problem and further instructions. You will not be able to close this dialog box
until the problem has been resolved.
