Scenario C: Using four PCs with CMS Client and CMS Matrix on PC1, CMS Server on PC2, SQL Server on PC3, and
CMS Matrix on PC4
Recommended hardware specification for Scenario C
Multiple Monitor Configuration
For a PC running the CMS Client and CMS Matrix, it is suggested that three monitors are used: one to display the Map
window and the System Configuration window, one to display the Alarm Overview window, and one to display the live
video feed matrix. This enables efficient use of the system and saves hardware costs.
PCs using multiple monitors in this way should have a Intel P35/i975x motherboard which can support two display cards.
Each display card should be the same model, to avoid hardware conflicts.
