Chapter 10 - Monitor options

The SideCar MMS series can be used with nearly any analog (SVGA) or digital (DVI) monitor. Digital DVI displays are supported at screen resolutions from 640 by 480 up to 1,280 by 1,024. Analog displays are supported at resolutions from 640 by 480 up to 2,048 by 1,536 resolution.

That said, since up to three external displays will be used together, and since the SideCar and notebook are highly portable, it makes sense to choose monitors with attributes that optimize these mobile, multi-monitor qualities.

The ideal monitor might have the following attributes:

ƒLCD or similar flat-panel technology

oSaves desk space, is portable, lower power/heat

ƒSupports digital DVI and analog VGA inputs

oDigital DVI connections do not suffer from analog anomalies, such as a shimmer known to occur sometimes with certain flat panels operating in analog mode

oAnalog VGA interface is universal and therefore versatile (can support notebook external VGA port, for example)

ƒOptimized for 1,280 by 1,024 resolution

oMaximum recommended resolution for SideCar digital DVI outputs, although higher resolutions are supported for analog outputs

ƒDisplay area large enough for comfortable viewing at that resolution

oWe recommend 18+ inches for 1,280 by 1,024 resolution

ƒThin, straight bezel (screen frame)

oEnables ganging of multiple displays for a nearly seamless desktop

ƒStand with vertical and tilt adjustment

ƒRemovable stand; standard VESA rear mounting plate

oRemovable stand aids transport; VESA mounting plate supports monitor arms and/or mounting rails

ƒIntegrated power supply

oMore portable than displays with external power supplies; external power supplies can also get misplaced during travel

NEC LCD1880SX monitors surpass our criteria. We recommend them highly.
