Avid Xpress systems support the following three monitors:
•
The 21-inch Bin monitor displays the Windows NT operating
system desktop.
•
The 21-inch Edit monitor displays the Avid software editing
environment.
•
The third monitor (Client monitor) displays full-screen video
playback and can be either an NTSC monitor or a PAL monitor.
This monitor is optional.
Only one monitor is standard with the Avid Xpress system. The remaining
two monitors can be purchased as options.
Avid Xpress systems also support monitors of other sizes. You can use
most 21-inch multisync monitors in place of the 17-inch monitors, but
both the Bin and Edit monitors must be the same size and model.
In previous Avid supported systems, the Service Pack on your system
could cause problems depending upon the use of MIDI and
dual-processor mode. The IBM 6868 system has no such problem. At
this date Service Pack 5 ships with the system and Service Pack 6 is
being tested. If problems with specific Service Packs occur, this guide
will be updated and posted to the Avid Web site.
MIDI support is not available directly within the IBM 6868 system, as you
must purchase a sound board for MIDI support. See "Installing a Sound
Board" on page 4-18 for more information.
