Connecting a DVI monitor
1. Make sure the power to the computer is turned off.
2. See the documentation that came with your monitor for information on the type of
connection that is required. Your monitor cable will have either a Digital Video Interface
(DVI)-I connector or a 15-pin VGA connector depending on monitor type. If your monitor is
a VGA monitor, see “Connecting a VGA monitor” in this chapter.
3. Connect the workstation monitor’s video cable to the primary DVI-I port on the Wildcat
Realizm video card. This connector is labeled “1” in the picture above and on the I/O panel
of your card.
CAUTION: If you are connecting only one monitor to the Wildcat
Realizm, you must plug that monitor into the Primary DVI-I
port (labeled “1” on the I/O panel of your card).
NOTE: If you are connecting an additional monitor to the
Wildcat Realizm, connect the additional workstation
monitor’s video cable to the secondary DVI-I port. See
“Enabling the Dual Monitor Feature” later in this
document for information on configuring dual displays
.
Connecting a VGA monitor
NOTE: You must use a DVI-to-Analog adapter – included with your
card – to connect a VGA monitor to the Wildcat Realizm.
1. Connect the monitor’s 15-pin VGA connector to the VGA end (see below) of the DVI-to-
Analog adapter.
2. Connect the DVI-I end of the adapter to the primary DVI-I port (label “1”) on the 3Dlabs
Wildcat Realizm video card.
NOTE: If you are connecting both a VGA and digital flat panel
monitor, you must connect the VGA monitor to the primary
DVI-I port (labeled “1”).
