Figure 2-2: Pin Details Between a PC and a 9760-CC1.
NOTE: A level converter can be used to connect a PC to an RS422 Sercom port on the rear of the
9760-CC1.
2.1.2 SVGA PC Monitor
The default setting for monitors when using the Graphic Controller program is 800 x 600 resolution with 16
colors.
If a Video Blaster card is installed in the PC, a screen resolution of 800 x 600 is the highest recommended.
Higher resolutions can be used if an optional Video Blaster card has not been installed. Monitor resolution
effects what size maps can be imported, therefore the optimum monitor resolution should be determined
before maps are exported.
2.1.3 Video Blaster Card
Video pictures can be displayed in the Video window in the Graphic Controller program if an optional
Creative Labs SE100 Video Blaster card is installed. Refer to the manual accompanying the video blaster
card for installation instructions.
The video output from the Video Matrix Bay connects to the input RCA connector on the Video Blaster card
(illustrated in figure 2-3). No external termination is necessary.
An optional composite color video monitor can be connected between the 9760-MXB (Video Matrix Bay)
and the PC so the same image displayed in the Video window is always displayed on a monitor.
2.1.4 Sound
Sound from the PC is required to warn operators when an alarm is triggered or when system errors occur.
There are two options currently available.
2.1.4a Sound Blaster Card (optional)
An optional sound blaster card provides sounds for alarms and system errors. Refer to the manual
accompanying the sound blaster card for installation instructions.
2.1.4b Windows Sound
Windows sound is standard with Windows software. It produces sounds for system events. However,
this option slows processing and may result in the system momentarily halting while sounds are pro-
duced. Refer to your Windows manual for set up information.
2.1.4c Sound Driver (future)
Dedicated sound drivers may be produced in future versions if required.
