Connecting and Powering on the VGA

Splitter

This section describes how to connect a VGA Splitter to a VGA

source and to a VGA monitor and VGA Frame Grabber (

The Frame Grabber is connected to the fault tolerant VGA OUT

port because the primary application is image capture using the

Frame Grabber.
