The Ethernet ports can be used to either:
 Connect a wireless access point for Touch OSC remote control. See section 34.
 Connect to a media server. See section 18.3

7.2.6 DVI Video Out
Two external monitors can be connected to the DVI connectors. A HDMI monitor can be connected
via a DVI to HDMI converter plug. (Not supplied). (Touch screens are not currently supported).
Displays on the inbuilt touch screens can be undocked and dragged onto the external monitors.
 If you are only using one external monitor it MUST be connected to “Video Out 1”.
 If you are using two external monitors it is recommended that both monitors have
identical resolutions and preferably the same make and model. If different resolution
monitors are used then the higher resolution monitor should be connected to the “Video
Out 1” connector. If these recommendations are not observed, then it is possible that
some of an external monitors display will spill over onto the encoder wheel touch screen
display.
See section 38 (LX Tools) for details on how to setup the external monitors.
