connect and power the TwinView from the ClearView+ monitor power socket, located
on the back of the ClearView+ (please refer to the Installation Guide).
 When using the TwinView with another video magnifier than the ClearView+, use the
adaptor cable to connect a standard ClearView+ power supply to the TwinView

2.1.4. Connecting the TwinView to a video magnifier

The TwinView supports two input channels, channel A and channel B. Per channel, the
TwinView has a VGA and DVI connection. To connect a device either the VGA or DVI
connection can be used, depending on the device to be connected and your personal
preference. The two connections per channel make it possible to connect a maximum of
four devices to the TwinView, of which the output from two devices can be displayed
simultaneously in a horizontal or vertical split.
Channel A is reserved to specifically connect the TwinView to a video magnifier. To
connect the video magnifier, use the included VGA or DVI cable and connect the video
magnifier VGA or DVI monitor connection to the TwinView channel A VGA or DVI
connection.
