Source of Mode:
When the TWIN tab is selected, the display driver reads the EDID information from each
monitor and reads the Registry to find detailed display timing information.
The Source of Mode group box shows which mode sources are available for the selected
resolution and colour depth.
The Source of Mode has four options.
Default
Monitor timing information from the display driver's internal tables.
Custom
Monitor timing information from the Registry. (See
Appendix 1: Defining Custom Modes
for
details)
Monitor (Master)
Monitor timing information from the monitor attached to output 1 of the Master Vigilant-X is
used for all outputs.
Monitor (Each)
The monitor timing information from each monitor is used for the output connected to that
monitor.
No. Screens
Change the number of screens the display driver uses. You should always install the driver
(using install.exe) for the maximum number of screens you want to use.
Screen Arrangement
Use the drop down menu to select the screen arrangement you require. The illustration in the
Monitor Configuration box will reflect your choice.
Force DVI Output
When the EMS display driver initializes it reads the EDIDs of the attached screens to
determine if the DVI (digital) or analog outputs should be used. If no monitor EDID is read
then this function is used to decide which output to enable.
If the check box is in an indeterminate state it signifies that the enabled outputs are not as
requested by the user. This will occur if a mixture of analog and digital screens are used or if
the type of monitor used is different to the Force DVI state.
If the check box state is changed the Apply button will become active, click on Apply to force
the required output.
Since the DVI (digital) output supports a lower pixel dot-clock frequency than the analog
output, the resolution dialog is updated when the check box is changed to reflect the
resolutions supported by the active output.
