4. Connect a USB cable from a rear USB connector port (on the computer) to the Type-B USB host
port input connector on the TP4-RGB card
5. Connect a HD-15 cable from the rear video port (on the computer) to the VGA/RGB 15-pin male
HD-15 RGB input connector on the TP4-RGB card.
6. Connect the monitor's HD-15 video cable to the VGA OUTPUT port on the rear of the TPI/4.
7. Cycle power to the unit. This cycling allows the unit to detect the new configuration.
8. Code a button on the touch panel page to enable the pass-thru feature on a selected input card slot.
Refer to the ^MPS section on page 122 for the specific command parameters to enable the Mouse
Pass-thru command on the RGB card. Toggling this coded panel button can
enable/disable the pass-thru feature.
The TPI/4 must first be set to match the resolution of the computers' video output
resolution (page 28) and then must be adjusted to fit the available screen on the CRT
monitor. There could be a case where the image being generated from the
TPI/4 is slightly "off" and should be adjusted using the CRT's on-board video
adjustment buttons.
9. Setup the TPI/4 output resolution using the procedures in the Step 1: Setting the Output Resolution
on the TPI/4 section on page 28.
If the TPI/4 is turned Off and then has power re-applied (power cycling), video
alignment settings done through the Video and/or RGB pages could be rest unless
the adjusted values have been previously saved. Refer to the Video Adjustment -
Video Adjustment section on page 63 for more information.
10. Use the CRT's video adjust buttons to align the incoming video signal to fit into the available screen
area. Initially positioning the TPI/4 incoming video can reduce any later adjustments of the video
through the RGB Setup page (H-position, V-position, H-size, etc.).
