2.5 Multiple Monitors
Your ATI Radeon™ HD 3800 series provides dual display functionality
and TV Out from a single video card. This new technology changes the
way you view your PC, TV, and video graphics.
The ATI Radeon™ HD 3800 series uses HydraVision™ software to
create a seamless multiple display desktop. Multiple monitor display
works as one large work area. A single application can span all monitors,
or many applications can occupy their own specific monitor. This feature
will take your PC’s graphics and video capabilities to the next level.
Connecting your ATI Radeon™ HD 3800 to your monitors
The ATI Radeon™ HD 3800 series provides support for two DVI-I
monitors or two VGA monitors using the supplied DVI-I-to-VGA adapter.
A television can also be used to expand your desktop by using the S-Video
connector.
Plug the monitor cable into your card (if you are running multiple
monitors, connect their cables to the appropriate connectors), then turn on
the computer and monitor(s).
To connect a flat panel to the ATI Radeon™ HD 3800 series use the
DVI-I connector as shown on the following page. To connect a VGA
monitor to the DVI-I connector, plug the supplied DVI-I-to-VGA adapter
into the DVI-I connector, then plug your monitor cable into the adapter.
When you use multiple monitors with your ATI Radeon™ HD 3800
series, one monitor will always be primary. Any additional monitor(s)
will be designated as secondary.
