• Display. Display capabilities are provided via the Matrox G450 graphics
controller. The Matrox G450 has built-in circuitry to display images on a
high-resolution monitor, analog flat panel, or TV. It also supports digital visual
interface (DVI) compliant digital VGA output, to display images on a digital
display device. In addition, it supports 32-bit (true-color) non-destructive
graphics overlay onto live video, for a completely true-color display.
The Matrox G450 is capable of output to one or two display devices using Matrox
DualHead technology. Various operating systems employ Matrox DualHead
technology to simultaneously output their interface on two devices (such as
achieving an extended desktop). However, to output images/video to an auxiliary
screen (such as a high-resolution monitor or TV, not controlled by Windows),
you must do so through MIL or MIL-Lite. Refer to your software manual for
information on the display capabilities supported by your operating system, and
refer to the MIL/MIL-Lite user guide for information on displaying images on an
auxiliary screen.
• PC/104-Plus interface. PC/104-Plus is a standard stackable form factor for the
ISA and PCI busses. It provides access to Matrox frame grabbers for PC/104-Plus
and other third-party PC/104-Plus or PC/104 boards.
• Auxiliary I/O interface. The auxiliary I/O interface is composed of 16
independent LVTTL bits. These bits can be used to control digital signals to and
from external devices.
• Networking. The Matrox 4Sight-II motherboard integrates a standard
10/100BaseT Ethernet interface.
• IEEE 1394 interface. Three 400 Mbit/sec IEEE 1394 interfaces can be used for
connecting IEEE 1394 DCAM-compliant cameras or other devices.
• Other I/O interfaces. Matrox 4Sight-II includes:
- One parallel port, one RS-232 port, and one
RS-232/RS-422/RS-485-selectable serial port.
- One audio input and one audio output connector.
- Two USB interfaces to connect a USB keyboard, mouse, and printer.
