ADD AN EXTERNAL MONITOR DEVICE
The external monitor device driver supports any noncontrollable video destination, such as a noncontrollable monitor.
Before you can add a device to the server configuration, you must first start the device driver—either on the server workstation or on the
network—and then add the driver to the server configuration. Refer to the Device Drivers section for instructions.
1. Navigate the Object Browser tree to [project name] > Device Drivers > External Monitor > Devices.
2. Double-click <Add New Device>. The Add New External Monitor dialog box appears.
You can also configure settings after you have added the monitor to the server configuration. Right-click the monitor, and then select Edit
from the pop-up menu. The Edit Properties dialog box appears, which contains the same tabs and fields as the Add New External Monitor
dialog box.
3. Configure the monitor settings, as described in the following sections.
4. Click OK to close the Add New Device dialog box.
