TwinView
Please note: If you connect a video magnifier via DVI, the video source selection in menu
A needs to be set to DVI. Please refer to chapter 4, "The TwinView Menu Setup".
2.1.5. Connecting the TwinView to the PC
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 B is reserved to specifically connect the TwinView to a PC. To connect a PC, use
the included VGA or DVI cable and connect the PC to the TwinView channel B connection.
Please note: If you connect the PC using the channel B DVI connection, the video source
selection in menu B needs to be set to DVI. Please refer to chapter 4, "The TwinView
Menu Setup".
Please note: For optimal image quality, Optelec recommends to set the PC's resolution to
full HD 1920x1080. Please refer to your Microsoft Windows or operating system's manual
or help system on how to change the monitor resolution.
2.2.
TwinView Intelligent Split Screen Software Setup
To use the intelligent split screen functionality of the TwinView and combine the images of
both the video magnifier and a PC simultaneously on a single monitor, connect both the
video magnifier and a PC to the TwinView as described in the previous two paragraphs.
Connect the USB cable to the TwinView and the PC.
If you are using MAGic version 13.1, ZoomText version 10.1 or SuperNova version 15.02
or later, install the included TwinView software from the Optelec TwinView CD. To
determine the version of MAGic, ZoomText or SuperNova that you work with, check the
"About" box in the help menu.
Simply use the TwinView buttons to select the preferred split-screen orientation
– horizontal or vertical – and the split screen functionality of MAGic, ZoomText or
SuperNova is set automatically. No further adjustments are required within MAGic,
ZoomText or SuperNova.
Please note: Earlier versions of MAGic, ZoomText and SuperNova, as well as other
screen magnification software, are not supported by the TwinView software. If you are
using an older version of MAGic, ZoomText or SuperNova, or other screen magnification
software, you will need to adjust the split screen functionality manually. Please refer to
your screen magnification manual for instructions on how to manually configure the split
screen function.
