Determining Main And Secondary Display - Matrox Meteor-II Installation Manual

Important Whenever you change your connection setup, make sure you are using the correct
connectors and that all connectors are properly fastened.
Whenever you restart your computer, make sure your monitors are already turned
on. Otherwise, the software might not be able to properly detect your monitors.

Determining main and secondary display

Your Matrox board supports both a main display and a secondary display. The
main display supports more features than the secondary display. How your
monitors are connected will determine how the software selects your main display.
• If you have a DVI/HD-15 board, the main display is determined in one of two
ways:
- If a digital monitor is connected, the DVI connector is used for your main
display.
- If no digital monitor is connected, the HD-15 connector (on the bracket) is
used for your main display.
• If you have a DVI/DVI or a HD-15/HD-15 board, the connectors are numbered.
The main display uses the connector labeled 1, and the secondary display uses the
connector labeled 2.
