About
The MDSC-8255 can have multiple video inputs connected. Switching between the different inputs can be
done easily with the Source shortkey ( ).
Futhermore, if more than one video source is connected, the Picture in Picture (PiP) functionality becomes
available, allowing you to view two different video inputs at once. Please refer to "Picture and Picture input",
page 36 and "Picture in Picture input", page 37 for more information.
Beside the video input connections, the MDSC-8255 also has video output capabilities allowing you to loop-
through or duplicate the screen content on the DVI output port, allowing an easy connection with another
display, projector, video recorder, ...

CAUTION: When the display is assembled in the medical system, take care of the fixation of all
cables, to avoid unwanted detachment.
