4.If you have a second high-resolution monitor, you can connect it to the TV-Out/DVI-I connector (connector #2) on the Matrox 4Sight-M unit. Connect the DVI-to-VGA adapter (provided wtih the Matrox 4Sight-M unit) to the TV-Out/DVI-I connector.

5.Follow the same procedures as outlined in the above steps for connecting the first high-resolution monitor to the first VGA connector.

Connecting a digital flat panel

Connect a digital flat-panel to the DVI-compliant digital VGA connector ("DVI-I") using the cable provided with your display device.

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-M can output both composite (CVBS) and component (Y/C) video in NTSC or PAL format. It can also output component RGB video with resolutions similar to video in NTSC/PAL formats.

Connect the DVI-to-VGA adapter to the VGA connector #2, then connect your device to analog VGA connector #2, using a DB-15 to 5BNC 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:
