The ATI RADEON 7500 PCI graphics controller has a standard 15-pin VGA connector, a DVI-I connector and an S-Video connector. The S-Video functionality is not supported by either OpenVMS or HP-UX. There is no VGA switch; VGA functions are automatically configured through the console firmware and software.

DVI-I to VGA Connector Adaptor

OpenVMS does not support direct DVI to DVI operation on the ATI RADEON 7500 card. The DVI port is only useable by using a DVI to analog (VGA) adapter or cable (this part was supplied on the AlphaServer version of the card, but is not supplied for HP Itanium). If a DVI to analog adapter or cable is used, OpenVMS drives both the VGA and DVI interface with the same image.

HP-UX does support all video connections, including direct DVI to DVI, DVI to analog (VGA) and VGA to VGA.
