4.9 Connecting an External Monitor
You can connect an external monitor (or projector) to the "DVI" connector on the
rear panel of the R&S FPL1000 (see also Chapter 5.2.6, "DVI", on page 44).
Screen resolution and format
The touchscreen of the R&S FPL1000 is calibrated for a 16:10 format. If
you connect a monitor or projector using a different format (e.g. 4:3), the
calibration is not correct and the screen does not react to your touch actions
properly.
The touchscreen has a screen resolution of 1280x800 pixels. Most external
monitors have a higher screen resolution. If the screen resolution of the
monitor is set higher than the instrument's resolution, the application win-
dow uses an area of 1280x800 pixels on the monitor display. For full screen
display, adjust the monitor's screen resolution.
The R&S FPL1000 supports a minimum resolution of 1280x768 pixels.
1. Connect the external monitor to the R&S FPL1000.
2. Press the [Setup] key.
3. Press the "Display" softkey.
4. Select the "Configure Monitor" tab in the "Display" dialog box.
