2 Connect your monitors
If your monitor has a DVI connector,
connect your monitor cable directly to the
dual-monitor cable.
If your monitor has an HD-15 connector,
use a DVI to HD-15 adapter included with
your product to connect your monitor cable
to your dual-monitor cable.
Your Matrox card is now installed. Restart your computer and install your Matrox software (see
“Installing your Matrox software”, page 19).
Connecting four monitors
The following explains how to connect four monitors to your Matrox product.
1 Connect your quad-monitor
cable
Attach your quad-monitor cable to the
connector on the bracket of your Matrox
card.
WA R N I NG : To avoid damaging the LFH-60 connector on your dual-monitor cable or on
your graphics card, carefully insert the connector on your dual-monitor cable as straight
as possible into the connector on your graphics card. Specifically, inserting the connectors
into each other at an angle is likely to bend and damage the pins on the connector of the
dual-monitor cable.
