Connect monitor (page 2 of 2)
Manual setup
The automatic setup works well for common single monitor, and
dual monitors scenarios. For more complex scenarios, you may
need manual configuration.
Sign in to the web interface and navigate to Setup > Configuration,
to find the settings referred below.
Set a role for each
monitor
Define a role for each monitor
with the Video > Output >
Connector n > MonitorRole
setting.
Choose monitor roles that
match your monitor setup.
Only one monitor can have
monitor role First.
Set the number of
monitors
Set the number of monitors
with different layouts in
your setup with the Video >
Monitors setting.
When set to Auto, the video
system automatically detects
if a monitor is connected to a
connector, and thereby also
determines the number of
monitors in the setup.
The other options allow you
to fix a single, or dual monitor
setup; and to dedicate one
monitor for presentations.
Choose on which
monitor to display
messages and indicators
Define on which monitor to
display the messages and
indicators on-screen with the
UserInterface > OSD > Output
setting.
When set to Auto, the video
system determines which
monitor to use based on the
number of the connector.
Set the monitor
resolution and refresh
rate
The video system reads the
native resolution of a monitor
and outputs this if possible.
Typically, this gives the best
possible picture for the
monitor.
If auto-detection of resolution
and refresh rate fails, you must
set the resolution manually
with the Video > Output >
Connector n > Resolution
setting.
About the number of
monitors and the role of
each monitor
The Video > Output > Connector n >
MonitorRole setting assigns a role to the
monitor that is connected to the output.
The monitor role decide which layout (call
participants and presentation) will appear
on the monitor.
Monitors with different monitor roles get
different layouts.
The Video > Monitors setting must reflect
the number of different layouts in your
room setup.
Note that a monitor can be reserved for
presentations.
Example:
Two monitors in total, and the second monitor is dedicated to only
show presentations:
• Video > Monitors: DualPresentationOnly
• Video > Output > Connector 1 > MonitorRole: Auto
• Video > Output > Connector 2 > MonitorRole: Auto
• UserInterface > OSD > Output: Auto
