Connecting a digital flat panel

Connect a digital flat-panel to the DVI-compliant digital VGA connector
("DVI-V") using the cable provided with your display device.
❖ Be sure that you have not connected another display device to analog VGA
connector #1 if you are connecting to the "DVI-V" connector. If you need to
connect a second display, use analog VGA connector #2.

Connecting NTSC/PAL video output devices

You can connect video output devices, such as a TV monitor or VCR to analog
VGA connector #2. Matrox 4Sight-II can output both composite (CVBS) and
component (Y/C) video in NTSC or PAL formats. It can also output component
RGB video with resolutions similar to video in NTSC/PAL formats.
Connect your device to analog VGA connector #2, using a special TV output
adapter cable, composed of a 15-pin VGA connector on one side, and 5 BNC
connectors on the other. This cable can be purchased from various third-party
vendors. The wires of the BNC connectors are color-coded for the following
output:

1. Note that the synchronization signal can have its own line, or be coupled with either the R, G, or B signal.
To output video to an NTSC/PAL video output device, configure your unit using
the appropriate commands when programming your imaging application. Please
refer to your imaging software's documentation for details.
