Cabling
Using a VGA Monitor
You may connect the 8949SVM module to an analog VGA monitor by using
a DVI to VGA adapter (customer-supplied) to connect the VGA cable to the
DVI connector, J4, on the 8949SVM rear module. An example of a typical
adapter is shown in
Figure 4 . Information for ordering cable adapters is
available on-line.
Figure 4. DVI to VGA Adapter
After connecting the 8949SVM to your VGA monitor, you will need to
change the Display Drive mode from DVI to RGB following the instruc-
tions given below under
Monitor Display Selection .
Monitor Display Selection
Note This change must be made while holding down the Menu paddle switch
control and inserting the module into a powered up frame.
Before inserting the module into the powered up frame, press and hold
down the
Menu paddle switch control on the front edge of the module
( Figure 8 on page 19 ). Continue to hold the Menu paddle switch control
down while inserting the module until it is seated in the rear module con-
nector and the monitor senses an input. This will take about 10 seconds.
When the
Menu paddle switch control is held down for longer, the unit will
cycle between DVI and RGB every 5 seconds. Leave the setting on RGB. It
is not necessary to connect an SDI input during this process.
