Specifying the order and physical arrangement of displays in your multi-monitor setup and

any additional configuration.

The following sections provide high-level descriptions of video configuration steps you can
perform. For comprehensive documentation about GPU driver features and interfaces, see the
manufacturers’ driver documentation.

NOTE: ClearCube only supports drivers included in the product. Do not use any driver you obtain

from the following manufacturers or from any other unauthorized source.

6.7.1 Enabling and Disabling Displays Using the GPU Driver

After powering on a zero client and connecting to a host, ensure that all displays connected to the
zero client are specified in the host card GPU driver. If one or more displays are blank, the
displays might not be enabled in the GPU interface. The GPU driver interface is typically
available from a right-click menu (such as NVIDIA Control Panel).

Ensure that the correct type of display and number of displays are enabled (selected) in the

GPU interface.

If you are configuring an R-series blade, ensure that the driver’s VGA (CRT) setting is

correct: if you are using a CRT display (for example, if a ClearCube C/Port is connected to
the zero client), ensure that one CRT display is enabled in the driver’s interface and one DVI
display is enabled. If you are not using a CRT display, disable the CRT display and enable
the appropriate number of DVI displays.

Now that you have enabled the displays connected to your zero client, you can continue to
perform additional video configurations as described in the following section.

6.7.2 Additional Video Configuration Steps

After connecting to a host and enabling displays through the GPU driver interface, you can

display’s native resolution or the resolution that the manufacturer recommends.

Desktop appearance
