Display Interface

ECU-579 is configured with dual DVI connectors and one VGA connector. You can
set up the display through BIOS.
Note! "Onboard device" is the option for VGA output. "PCIe device" is the
option for DVI output.
The first time getting started with a bare sever, the operating system needs to be
installed. "Legacy" is the default mode on the bare machine, and DVI is the default
display in BIOS.
The following cautions need your attention:
Caution! If you choose UEFI mode, both VGA and DVI can be used to display
BIOS output.
After the Windows operating system is installed, you can use both VGA
and DVI for display output (you need to install the "DVI SM768 driver").
If the Linux operating system is installed, VGA can be used as display
output, but DVI output needs to be tested since it will be unstable with a
variable Linux OS version.
Caution! If you choose Legacy mode, then VGA or DVI can be used to display
BIOS output.
If you install Windows OS, then both VGA and DVI can be used to dis-
play output (for DVI, you need to install the "DVI SM768 driver").
If you install Linux OS, VGA can be used as display output but DVI out-
put needs to be tested since it could be unstable with a variety of Linux
OS versions.
