Connecting the Monitor Cables

You may connect one or two monitors, either DFP/digital CRT or analog VGA to the FireGL™ card. Use the provided DVI-to- VGA adapters to connect monitors with VGA connector.

If you connect only one monitor, make sure to connect it to DVI connector (1) on the card.

Securely attach the data cable of your first monitor to the DVI output connector (1) on the card. Attach the cable to the monitor according to the monitor's instructions. Refer to the documentation that came with your monitor if you need additional installation information.

Connect the data cable of your second monitor to the DVI output connector (2) on the card.
