Before You Begin; Required Hardware - Matrox Mura MPX series User Manual

Overview
Matrox Mura MPX-4/4, MPX-4/2, and MPX-4/0 products now support GXM (Graphics Expansion
Module) products.
Adding a Matrox DualHead2Go Digital Edition or TripleHead2Go Digital Edition product to your
Mura MPX Series setup increases the number of available outputs on your Mura MPX Series card.
You can connect up to four (4) GXM units to each Mura MPX card, increasing the number of
available outputs on each Mura MPX card to 8 (using DualHead2Go Digital Edition) and 12 (using
TripleHead2Go Digital Edition).

Before you begin

To prevent possible problems that could prevent you from using your Matrox product, read the
following guidelines before installing or connecting your Matrox product.
Matrox Mura MPX driver version 2.01.00 (or newer) must be installed.
Four (4) GXM products at a time can be connected to each Mura card.
TripleHead2Go – To achieve higher display resolutions, use the analog input (not the
digital input) connector on your TripleHead2Go unit.
Because all outputs in a display wall using Mura products must use the same display
resolution, every output in a system must be using a GXM product and your GXM
products must all use the same resolution.
Only GXM products from the same series can be used (same make and model), and only
DualHead2Go Digital Edition or TripleHead2Go Digital Edition products are
supported.
Make sure all your GXM have the same firmware version installed (we recommend
installing the most recent version).
Monitors must all support the same native resolution.
Each GXM connected requires an external power supply. To purchase a Matrox power
adapter kit for GXM, see the Matrox online store (shopmatrox.com).
