Note
Possible number of standard versions or PRO devices on a PC
A free USB interface and a free DisplayPort/DVI interface on the PC is required for each
connection of a standard version to a PC. This means that the possible number of IFPs on a
PC is defined by the number of available USB and DisplayPort/DVI interfaces of the PC.
Possible number of PCs on a standard version
As soon as the DisplayPort interface of the standard version is connected to a PC, no video
signals can be transmitted via the DVI interface of the standard version and vice versa. This
means that exactly one PC can be connected to a standard version.
