display. This allows you to work on your primary display, while ensuring
that only the video clip on the Convert DVI's display is being routed to the
Convert DVI's analog and SDI video outputs.
Mirroring your displays You can also duplicate your primary display
$
onto your Convert DVI's desktop display. This ensures that your primary
display is being routed to the Convert DVI's analog and SDI video
outputs. This option is useful if you don't have a secondary monitor to
connect to Convert DVI's DVI OUT, or if you are conducting a training
video for example, where you want your audience to see everything you
are doing on your primary display. If your primary display does not
support your desired desktop resolution, you can change your display
settings to make Convert DVI your primary display, allowing you to select
any resolution supported by Convert DVI.
¦ Note If you remove the monitor connected to Convert DVI's DVI OUT
connector, it's recommended that you mirror your primary monitor.

desktop, click Display , and then select the desired resolution for your
Convert DVI desktop according to how you want to use Convert DVI:
If you want to output your entire Convert DVI desktop, it is recommended
$
that your Convert DVI desktop resolution and video output format are
close in size. For example, if you want to output NTSC video, set your
Convert DVI desktop resolution to 800×600 for best results.
If you want to output a specific area of your Convert DVI desktop using
$
the region of interest feature (see
settings"
on page 33), it is recommended that you set your Convert DVI
desktop resolution to the native resolution of the monitor that is connected
to it.
If you plan on using Convert DVI in stand-alone mode, set your Convert
$
DVI desktop resolution to the resolution of the DVI input device that will
be connected to Convert DVI in stand-alone mode (see
mode"
on page 42).
¡ Important If the monitor connected to Convert DVI's DVI OUT (Convert
DVI desktop) loses its display and shows a black screen when selecting a
resolution or refresh rate, see
on page
22
to resolve the issue.
If the selected resolution is supported in more than one frequency, such as
4
1280×1024 (60 Hz and 75 Hz), in the display preferences window
associated with your Convert DVI desktop, in the Display pane, select the
desired frequency in the Refresh Rate list.
