have been tested and are compatible. For some less-demanding applications,
it may be acceptable to use a less expensive, dual-DVI output graphics card.
Install the mirror-flip PCI card
Because the viewer will see a reflection of the top monitor, it is required that
this image be flipped on the horizontal axis. A mirror-flip PCI card is included
with the SD1710 unit. Plug this card
into a free PCI slot in your computer.
There are no drivers to load with the
mirror-flip PCI card.
Warning Proper ESD (electro
static discharge)
handling precautions
should be exercised
when installing the
mirror-flip PCI card.
Consult your
computer's manual
regarding the correct
installation procedure
for graphics cards.
1.
Remove the blank bracket from an available PCI slot.
2.
Insert the mirror-flip PCI card into the slot, align the connector pins, and
press the board down until it is firmly seated. (See Figure 7.)
3.
Secure the mounting bracket.
Connect the cables
The SD1710 unit comes with two 6-
foot DVI cables and one 14-inch DVI
cable.
1.
Take one of the 6-foot DVI cables
and plug one end into the
primary port of your dual-channel
DVI graphics card (GC). Plug the
other end into the bottom
monitor of your SD1710 unit.
2.
Plug one end of the 14-inch DVI
cable into the secondary output
of the dual-channel graphics
card. (See Figure 8.) Plug the
other end into the input port
(labeled "IN") of the mirror-flip PCI card.
