Connecting a Single Monitor, Multi-Display System, or

The Model 744 typically uses one of two types of display:
• CRT-based color monitor connected to a video port
• Terminal connected to a serial port
Depending on your operating system, the Model 744 supports a maximum of
four monitors at the same time. For more information on connecting multi-
ple monitors to your Model 744, see "Multi-Display Systems," later in this
chapter. (HP-RT supports only one monitor at a time.)

Configuration Requirements

This section provides information on configuration requirements and step-
by-step instructions for connecting one or more display devices to your
Model 744.

Monitors

If your board computer does not have on-board graphics, it must have a
PMC bridge adapter and an HP A4979 PMC graphics card installed. For
instructions on installing a PMC bridge adapter and HP A4979A graphics
card refer to Chapter 2 of this guide.
NOTE: Monitors are supplied with a video cable. Use this cable either directly or with
the conversion video cable, depending on what graphics capability you have
installed.
