Connecting extra monitor to DVI-I connection EVS 1464 (displaying Front Panel)

Hi,
Currently developing a Vision system using the following:
LabVIEW 2010 SP1
LabVIEW 2010 Real-Time SP1
Vision Development 2010 SP1
EVS 1464
My question is:
How can I display my front panel, running on the EVS, on a monitor connected to the DVI-I output of the EVS 1464?
Thanks ahead!

Hi Roy, I'm not sure if Hossein actually read that KB or not, but it deals with displaying the front panel over the network on a Windows machine, not out through the monitor connection on the EVS running LabVIEW RT.
To answer your original question, no, it is not possible to view the standard LabVIEW front panel on the RT system today. All the code for displaying all the front panel UI buttons, controls, and indicators is simply not present in LabVIEW Real-Time and is only viewable on a seperate machine that is either running the development environment or using a web browser that has the LabVIEW plugin installed.
Having a UI display on RT is certainly a requested feature and perhaps it might be available some day. You might want to check this request: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Real-Time-Idea-Exchange/Real-time-display/idi-p/1391108 . It has some good ideas for what other alternatives exist today as well.
However, this is one way to use the monitor output on the EVS and other LabVIEW RT systems. Vision Development Module includes RT Video Out VIs that can display any image on the connected monitor. You can either display images captured from cameras or custom images, as well as overlay text and simple graphic objects (lines, circles, rectangles, etc). It is certainly more effort than the normal front-panel editor in LabVIEW but it might be suitable for your needs if you want a few things to display. Of course you will have no mouse/keyboard so you cannot interact with any on-screen elements directly.

I just got a new mac mini. Can I connect 2 monitors via dvi?

I'm using the thunderbolt port to connect an external hard drive.
I have two samsung monitors that have a dvi port and a vga port. i'd like to connect it to my mac mini, is this an option to connect with the hdmi to dvi adapter and a dvi to dual dvi splitter?
Or if you have another recommendation, please feel free to reply.
Just to be clear, I'm looking to use two monitors so i have more real estate to work with. I'm not looking for the same thing on one monitor to also be on the other.
Thanks ahead,
Line

Hello, if a splitter would work at all, it would only Mirror the same on both.
A few TB devices have a pass through that MAY work to run another Monitor... or not.

[SOLVED] Connecting extra Monitor, laptop screen goes black.

Whenever i connect a additional monitor through HDMI (my only output), the laptop screen goes black. If i do FN + external_monitor switch, then the laptop screen turns on but the external monitor turns off.
If you move the mouse you can feel that the desktop has been extended as i wanted, it is just that one of the screens keeps going black. The gnome display settings show both screens as active, the menu is so minimalistic that there is not much to do.

The problem is now fixed,
For some weird reason, this time the gnome settings did work. Must have been some sort of rare bug that now i cannot reproduce.

Connecting ADC monitor and DVI monitor to G4?

Hello,
Like my specs say, I'm running a dual 1 ghz quicksilver 2002 g4 and am trying to connect the 23" display AS WELL as the 15" ADC flatscreen (legacy?)
My video card is only vga and adc and my computer has an agp slot.
So I'm figuring that I need a new AGP card with both a DVI and ADC input...correct? If so, does anyone have recommendations on any? How about alternate routes I should take?
Thank You
dual 1 ghz G4 (quicksilver 2002) Mac OS X (10.4.3) 1ghz ram

A Mac NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti would work. It has ADC and DVI.

Samsung Monitor acting strange when connected with digital cable.

I have a Powermac G5 dual 2.7 GHz desktop. I am connecting a Samsung 2233BW monitor. When I connect the monitor from its digital connection using the digital cable I have a problem bringing the monitor back from sleep mode. I get horizontal jagged lines. When I turn the monitor off and back on it works fine again. When I connect the monitor from its analog connection and analog cable using a converter the monitor does not have this problem. Its not the monitor because I had Samsung replace the first one and I still have the problem. Someone told me it was a firmware problem, but Apple support says since no updates show up when I run software updates that everything should be ok. Is there something I can do or do I just have to live with the analog connection?

Have you opened the Mac up lately to see if the graphics card is clear of dust and not overheating?
Does this happen when you first boot up your Mac and then put the monitor to sleep?
Is the monitor set up to default to the digital input?
Most importantly, is it safe to presume that you have tried a new cable?

Elitebook 810 - Displayport to VGA adaptor not connecting dual monitor

I bought a displayport to VGA adaptor (Insignia) for connecting Elitebook 810 to my old HP monitor. When I connect the monitor 'goes to sleep' and won't display. Received msg I can't recreate about not recognizing the hardware and to use HP hardware. Any fixes? Thanks!

Displayport is a digital signal.
VGA is an analog signal.
This will never work. Your solution is to either get the ultraslim dock that comes with VGA or get a monitor that has displayport OR HDMI. Then you can buy the DP to HDMI (because both are digital signals). DP and HDMI carry the audio signal so you can hear audio from the monitor (if it has speakers).

Front panel connections

.I am building a new system but the front panel connections in thr mobo manual need clarification for me .
Front panel connections jfp1 & jfp2
jfp2 -- 4pin speaker wire 2-8
3pin power led 1-5
jfp1-- 2pin hdd led 1-3
2pin reset sw 5-7
2pin power sw 6-8
In the manual it has a 2pin power led 2-4 but there is no wire do I take it that you do not need this .
USB 2 & USB 3
4 pin connector vcc , usb- , usb+, gnd 2-8 or 1-7
this cable has an extra gnd wire I would imagine you just leave this unconnected as there is no 9pin & 10 is usboc .
Front audio
pins 5-6 & 9-10 not to be used .
So that leaves me with 5 connections but manual does not say where they connect .
ear left
ear right
mic vcc
mic in
grd
Hope I have explaine myself ok but woulsd rather be suree before I go any further , I have the rest of the pc in place .
Regards Ian

Found these on an other site much more explicit than manual . There was connection diagram on manual but no direction as to + or - so would imagine 1for example is hd led p for positive .
PIN SIGNAL DESCRIPTION
1 HD_LED_P Hard disk LED pull-up
2 FP PWR/SLP MSG LED pull-up
3 HD_LED_N Hard disk active LED
4 FP PWR/SLP MSG LED pull-up

Audigy 2 Platinum Front Panel Connecti

I recently began recording my band in our home studio. My mixing board is a Midas Venice 240 which has two balanced XLR outputs from the master bus. I am wondering what method I may use to connect this output to the /4" stereo input on the front panel of the Audigy 2 Platinum. If I just purchase a Y-adapter to combine the two channels into one XLR and then convert it to /4" TRS jack will both channels be preserved? Are there any sound quality issues that arise from this method of connection? I was hoping to get answers to these questions before wasting money buying unnecessary adapters.
Thanks

The BEST way to do this is to go to radio shack and buy two (yes 2) of their?XLR to /4" Impedence Matching Transformers, AND?one (yes )?dual /4" female TS (tip-sleeve) to single /4" male TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) "Y" cable. Unless your mixer also has /4" main outs as well as the XLR... then you can just use the Y cable and skip the transformers. Or you can use a /8" Y cable with the transformers (and stereo /4 to stereo /8 adapter) and go into the card's line in jack on the actual card. Which is how I did it for a year or more untill i got a firewire recording interface (and it worked darn good too with my Soundcraft mixer and some good microphones). Either way,?you need the transformers for optimal results. The reason is the mixer's output impedence and level doesnt match that of the soundcard's input... mixer will likely overdri've the card, or the signal will sound weak or noisy.. The transformers?are cheap and are darn handy for loads of recording functions, and will provide the Audigy with exactly the type of signal it needs, properly transformed from the mixer. If you do this, you can record ALL of the mixer channels IN STEREO with all the panning, effects, and levels preserved. If you have multitracking software like Cubase or similar, you can even record an individual instrument (or even 2 at once, one panned left, one right... each assigned its own track in your software), come back on a new track (or pair of tracks), and record a different instrumet (or 2) and build a multitrack recording one performance at a time. PS:? you CANNOT just hardwire the mixer outputs and combine them into a single channel. A mixer is needed to properly combine?signals. Don't do it
!!! Have fun... and rock on.PSS:? make sure your overall cable is as short as possible. If you must run it for more than 6 feet then run it in XLR mode and convert it very close to the computer. The non XLR section of cable is an antenna for noise. The XLR section will be shielded against noise. Also, the transformers are kinda heavy so do not plug them into somthing and allow them to hang in the plug becasue the hanging weight will ruin your jack. Its best to run cables to the transformers, allowing them to lay on the floor... in a safe place where they wont get stomped on.

MBP does not detect external monitor on DVI connection...

(2007) MBP C2D 2.33 15", OSX LION 3gb. Worked fine till about 3 days ago (right after installing the last round of updates).
My external monitor now fails to connect on DVI cable. Since it also has VGA, I was able to test this way with a DVI to VGA adapter and that worked perfectly, but the vga gives a lower resolution. Having estalished that the graphics adapter and the monitor were okay, I looked for other issues.
Starting the MBP in clamshell mode, it found the monitor on DVI. Then restarting normally, it all worked fine, UNTILL the MBP went to sleep. when it awoke, no external. Plugged, unplugged, trashed display prefs, nothing, though it does still work via DVI-VGA.
I don't think having to clamshell everytime is a workable solution, but I NEED MY DESK SPACE!
Any thoughts?

Yesterday, having had the problem become far worse, I too tried PRAM/NVRAM clearing (SMC reset so many times I can't count them). Then, in desperation I purchased TechtoolPro 6 and ran it. Everything s working well now, and in fact the video issue cleared up while techtool loaded, it didn't even wait for me to run the thing!
More: About 3 weeks ago, I made a HardDrive image from an older white macbook so I could repair its hard drive. After doing that job, I (thought I) deleted the image from my MBP, but the disk still showed 80Gb used that wasn't before. So while I thought I had 130GB free, I was only showing 50. After running the directory rebuild, I now have 175gb Free! So the directory was keeping track of 95GB that WASN'T there! I suspect this had something to do with my problems. Then running the Defrag and Optimization routines, my 2007 MBP is running like a brand new machine. Other things that had been buggy (like the right click on my magic mouse) are now working like they should.
Recommended highly!

Connecting 2 dell monitors via DVI to MBP.

Hi folks.
I want to have 3 screens in total.
1 built in MBP dispaly + 2 other dell displays.
Obviously there is just one display porton my mac, how i connect the other two dell dispalys to my Mac.
The Dell's have display port, vga and DVI ports on them.
Do i need to purchased a cable or adapter to achieve my desired configuration.?
Thanks in advance for any help.

You didn't specify the sizes of those monitors. But assuming the resolutions fit within the limitiations of these adapters you could use something like the following for one of the displays:
Newer Technology USB to DVI / HDMI / VGA HD Video Display Adapter
Or just search for USB to video converters.
For the other you could use a DVI adapter directly into the video port.
The reason the monitor sizes is important is because for resolutions above 1920 x 1200 you need a dual link dvi adapter for dvi connection. So assuming you have a mini-displayport (or thunderbolt) video port (you didn't specify your model of computer either) then you could use,
For single link DVI:
Mini DisplayPort | Thunderbolt to DVI Adapter
For dual link DVI:
Mini DisplayPort | Thunderbolt + USB to Dual-Link DVI Adapter

Can you WIRELESSLY connect a macbook pro to a monitor to have extra work space on a separate screen from your macbook? (not mirror, extra monitor/workspace)

Can you WIRELESSLY connect a macbook pro to a monitor to have extra work space on a separate screen from your macbook? (not mirror, extra monitor/workspace)
It needs to be wireless.
I am not asking about mirroring, but as a second screen.
Apple tv communties said the Apple tv cannot do this, but maybe another type device can?

My thunderbolt port stopped working on my late 2011 MacBook Pro rendering my external monitor useless--or so I thought.
Mac Genius suggested using the Apple TV via AirPlay Display as a $100 solution. Took me all of 6 minutes to figure this out as there are no directions in the Apple TV box supporting this. But, it does work and I am now back in business.
PS. Don't set up with bluetooth--seems logical but you want to use AirPlay Display under Settings > Displays.
Also, I originally thought my external monitor stopped working because I upgraded the OS. This time, it was definitely a hardware issue and not software. It also fixed a known sound issue my monitor had with Macs. First time in my 15 years I've ever had a ViewSonic have issues with an Apple product, too. Thanfully, it is now fixed.
Hope this helps.

Using External monitor with DVI kills wireless connectivity

I recently purchased a BenQ G2400WD 24" 1920x1200 monitor, for use with my May 2007 GMA 950 2.0Ghz. Macbook.
Upon receiving the monitor, I immediately plugged it in to my Macbook, using the Mini-DV to VGA adaptor I already had, for use with projectors. The monitor was good, but a bit blurry and not too sharp, due to the analog signal. So I ordered a Mini-DVI to DVI adaptor. When it arrived, the improved picture quality was immediately apparent.
However, as time went on, I noticed my wireless connectivity was getting terrible. Extremely slow Safari page load times, and upon going to Terminal and pinging my router, I would often get response times of 21000 milliseconds, or worse! I did a lot of research, on router firmware, on wireless connectivity, etc., but to no prevail. Then, on a whim, while continually pinging my router, I removed the DVI adaptor from my monitor. The ping instantly dropped from tens of full seconds to just a stable 0.4 milliseconds! Using my VGA connection resulted in no worse wireless connectivity than without it, but upon plugging in DVI and stressing the connection a bit (i.e. downloading a large file), the connection went bonkers. The pings also immediately jump from 0.4 milliseconds to a range of 1-4 milliseconds, regardless of any "stressing".
I have done numerous research, including searching both here and on other discussion forums. It appears this problem with DVI connection is fairly common, but with no resolution so far. Any help would be great!
A few important notes:
-Both ends of both my VGA cable and my DVI cable are shielded.
-I have tried numerous channel changes of my router, to no prevail.
-While using DVI, EVERYTHING works well except the wireless. So the monitor isn't too demanding for my computer.
And I hope my thorough post didn't scare you away!

I have this same issue with the dvi and wireless disconnect. I am using a samsung 214T. I am glad to know i am not the only one seeing this, because it is kind of one of those things that is hard to believe. Anyway, I am also curious what kind of routers people have who are experiencing this issue. I am using a wrt54GL with tomato firmware.
Also, In addition to the disconnect, my picture quality on my monitor gradually degrades over time...starting with what looks like snow flecks. After waking from screen saver, sometimes it is full static. Turning off and turning back on the monitor clears the static away.
I can use another samsung 19in monitor with dvi without any problems.

Connecting a regular Monitor with DVI

I'm wondering if I can connect a pc-monitor to the apple TV using a HDMI-DVI cable?
Instead of using a TV I want to use a pc-monitor with DVI input.
Is this possible or do I have to connect really a TV?

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
There would be a couple of issues to overcome. One is already mentioned by JG, HDCP is often not supported by DVI, you would need to check. Then there's a resolution issue the GPU of the tv may not support the native resolution of a large monitor, also your picture may or may not fill the screen and WS tv is 16:9, WS monitors are typically 16:10. Finally DVI doesn't carry audio so you would need to take care of audio in another way.
It's not impossible, there are those that use them with the tv, but you would need to check your particular monitor would work.

Connecting two monitors

ok so the mac pro has two different monitor ports after about an HOUR of searching i finally figured out the second port is an ADC port. now i want to hook up a vga monitor to it. is there and ADC to vga adapters out there. I have only found ADC to DVI. and also I am wondering can I just hook an ADC to DVI into the port and then take the DVI to VGA adapter that comes with the computer and connect it to the DVI end of the ADC to DVI essentially jerry rigging this to do what I need.
I have no idea for the life of my why apple has to make this so complicated.
heres some pictures of my video ports.

Your pictures do show an ADC port, but Mac Pro's don't use ADC. What graphics card do you have? What computer do you have? Are you sure it isn't a G5, not a Mac Pro? They look similar (on the outside). ADC cards only work in certain G4 and G5 models with an AGP slot with a special extra motherboard connector for ADC power.
An ADC to DVI adapter followed by a DVI to VGA adapter won't work since the ADC to DVI adapter does not pass the analog video needed for VGA. ADC to VGA adapters are available, but are now scarce and expensive.

Anyway I can connect 4 monitors to MacBook pro?

I already had a Tripohead2go which allow me connect 3 monitors, but I need to hook up one more display. Don't know what else I can do !

Are there anyone tried this option before?
Mini Display Port --> TripleHead2Go --> 3 x monitors
USB Port --> USB 3.0 to HDMI/DVI --> 1 x monitor
So now totally 4 extra monitors. But I'm not sure if the image will be lag specially by the USB port. So please advice. Thanks !!
