Connecting your ATX graphics hardware
Connecting two monitors
The following explains how to connect two monitors to your Matrox product.
1 Connect the first monitor
Connect your preferred monitor to the main
connector (
A ) on your Matrox graphics
card.
If your monitor has a DVI connector,
connect it directly to the main connector of
your graphics card.
If your monitor has an HD-15 connector,
use the DVI to HD-15 adapter included with
your Matrox product to connect your
monitor to the main connector.
2 Connect the second monitor
If your second monitor uses a DVI
connector, connect it directly to the
secondary connector (
B ) of your graphics
card.
Note: To connect a monitor to your Matrox
product, your monitor must have a DVI or
an HD-15 connector.
Some monitors with DVI connectors
support both digital and analog input. If
you’re using one of these monitors with your Matrox product, make sure it’s configured to
use the correct type of input. For more information, see your monitor documentation.
