NOTE
The monitors have to be connected to display ports 1 & 2. The numbering of the
display ports is from right to left, i.e. (4 3) 2 1.
WARNING
The VGAconnection does not work.
4.4. Connecting the Beplay Remote and
External Controller
The Beplay remote and External Controller are connected via USB to the X-One server.
The device is recognized as soon as it is plugged in.
4.5. DisplayPort Cable Warning
If you directly connect a server with a monitor using a DisplayPort cable, you need to
make sure that pin 20 (DP_PWR) of the cable is not wired and does not carry any power.
If in doubt, use a multimeter to verify this.
According to the VESA specification, the DP_PWR (pin 20) is not supposed to be wired in
standard cables because both source and sink devices are designed to provide power.
Ignoring this will in certain cases prevent the Avago RAID Controller (AOM-S3108-H8)
from being initialized at startup and thus making the RAID unavailable for the OS.
4.6. Connecting the BFE Tally Box
In the current fixed output assignments, we only use 3 DB-25 connectors (1-4, 5-8 and 9-
12) to provide 6 PGM and 6 PRV relay contacts.
