Rear Panel Connectors and Configurations 

 

A small cover plate can be removed on the rear panel to access an 8 position configuration switch.  
The switch is labeled 1 through 8.   Switch 1 is toward the center of the monitor, Switch 8 is toward 
the outside edge of the monitor.     
 
Switches 1 through 4 configure the monitor to support either VGA or DVI for each KVM video 
input.   Switch number 1 corresponds to KVM switch input #1.  Switch number 2 corresponds to 
KVM switch input #2.  Switch number 3 corresponds to KVM switch input #3.   Switch number 4 
corresponds to KVM switch input #4.    Set switch in “down” position for VGA input.  Set switch 
in “up” position for DVI input. 
 
Switch #5 configures the monitor to support either the Raritan Switchman KVM switch or the 
Adderview Pro KVM Switch. Set switch in “down” position for use with the  Raritan Switchman 
KVM switch.  Set switch in “up” position for use with the Adderview Pro KVM Switch.

assembly mounted internal to the monitor takes command of the Quad video processor and the 
Scaler PCBs inside the monitor.   Slave mode permits an external device to take control of the two 
internal subsystems

. Set “Down” or “off” to put controller in Slave mode.   Set the switch “up” ” to put 

controller in Master mode.
