Screen Resolutions Higher than 1280 x 1024

The maximum screen resolution of the KL1108V / KL1116V's integrated
LCD monitor is 1280 x 1024. In order to protect it from being damaged by
resolutions that are beyond its display capability, we recommend that the
screen resolutions of the connected computers be set to 1280 x 1024 or lower.
If you wish to display screen resolutions higher than 1280 x 1024, follow the
procedure described below to change the computers' screen resolutions and
safeguard the KL1108V / KL1116V's LCD monitor:
Note: We strongly recommend that you close the KL1108V / KL1116V LCD
console before continuing (see Closing the Console, page 33.) Using
the LCD monitor to view computers that are set to resolutions that
exceed its maximum capability can damage it and shorten its life span.
To access computers from the local console when the integrated console
is closed, simply connect an external KVM console with a monitor that
supports 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz to the KL1108V / KL1116V's external
console ports.
