HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Notice: Wear a protective ESD strap during installation or handling of
the controller. Electrostatic charges can damage the controller.
Familiarizing Yourself With the 5MP1HM
Prior to installing your 5MP1HM controller(s) in your PC please take a
few minutes to familiarize yourself with both the controller and the PCI
slots in your computer.
Figure 1: The 5MP1HM Display Controller
Jumper Location
There is one user settable jumper on the BarcoMed 5MP1HM. It is
used to enable or disable the VGA capabilities of the controller.
Using the VGA Capabilities of the BarcoMed 5MP1HM
Prior to installing the BarcoMed 5MP1HM, decide if you are going to
use its on-board VGA capabilities. If you are, check the setting of the
Jumper at J-1 on the display controller. (See VGA Jumper, J-1,
Figures 1 and 2) By default, VGA should be enabled, on the top two
pins. If you are using the VGA capabilities of the 5MP1HM, you
System manual MeDis 5MP1HM 15
Display Controller installation
should now remove any third party VGA controller from your system or
disable the integrated VGA controller.
If you decide to use a separate VGA card and monitor as your boot
monitor, you must disable the on-board VGA capabilities of the
BarcoMed 5MP1HM by moving the jumper to the bottom two pins at J-
1.
Figure 2: VGA Jumper Enlarged View
NOTE: To use multiple 5MP1HM controllers in a single host with VGA
enabled, you need to enable VGA on only ONE of the 5MP1HM
controllers and disable VGA on ALL other BarcoMed controllers.
Examples of PCI Slots
The BarcoMed 5MP1HM is a 64bit PCI controller. To obtain full
performance, it needs to be installed in a 64bit slot. Figure 3
illustrates the types of slots so that you can correctly identify which
one to use for the 5MP1HM.
Figure 3: PCI and RAID Controller Slots
System manual MeDis 5MP1HM 16
Display Controller installation
Installing the BarcoMed 5MP1HM Display Controller
Install the 5MP1HM into your computer following these steps:
1. Turn off the power to your computer and disconnect the power
cord.
2. Remove the chassis cover according to the manufacturers
instructions. Be sure to observe safety warnings.
3. If you have decided to use the on-board VGA capabilities of the
5MP1HM (see Using the VGA Capabilities of the BarcoMed
5MP1HM), you must now remove any VGA cards that are
currently installed in the computer. You may also need to un-install
the drivers for that VGA controller. (Consult the User Guide for
your VGA controller for instructions on removing the driver.) If your
system has an integrated VGA card you may need to make
changes to your systems BIOS settings in order to use the VGA
capabilities of your BarcoMed controller. (Consult your PC
manufacturers guides for instructions.)
4. Install the 5MP1HM Display Controller into a free 64bit PCI slot
(see Figure 3 for examples of slots). Be sure that the controller is
seated firmly in the slot.
5. Secure the card to the chassis with the PCs I/O panel mounting
screw, and replace the chassis cover.
6. Connect the display to the BarcoMed 5MP1HM using the video
cable provided with the controller. Each display cable has three
BNC connectors on it. The green one is the video, the black one is
the horizontal sync, and the white one is the vertical sync. Figure
4 shows the cable connectors on the back of the controller. To
install multiple BarcoMed 5MP1HM display controllers in your
computer repeat steps 4 6.
7. Reconnect the power cord, turn on the power, and boot the system
as usual.
Running Multiple BarcoMed Display Controllers in a Single Host
The physical order of the displays may vary when you are running
multiple BarcoMed display controllers. This is due to the PCs PCI
bus control in the system BIOS, and not the BarcoMed controller. It
may become necessary, depending on how your PCs BIOS
configures the PCI bus, to switch your BNC display connections to
achieve a linear desktop configuration.

Placing and configuring the displays
1 The last part of this system manual is a copy of the display user
manual. Follow the precautions and guidelines from this part.
2 The display(s) from the MeDis system are numbered. E.g., in a
quad-head system, the displays are numbered 1 to 4. You can
find the number of the display on a label at the rear side.
3 In a multi-head system, the order in which you place the displays
is not random: From left to right or from top to bottom in
ascending order.
4 The displays' remote addresses are properly set at the factory.
The addresses correspond to the display numbers on the rear
label: Display #1 has address 1 etc.
Note: The display address setting can be found in the Settings
menu in the display's on-screen menus. For more information,
please refer to the last part of this manual.
Connection of the video cables
1 The video cables from the MeDis system are numbered. You can
find the number on a label on the cable.
The cable number must correspond to the head (on the display
controller) and the display it is connected to: E.g., cable #1 must
connect head #1 (on the first display controller) to display #1,
cable #2 must connect head #2 (also on the first board) to display
#2, etc.
2 Plug in the small coaxial connectors of the video cable into the
connectors of the display controller. Plug in the cable connector
marked with green plastic, into the board connector marked with a
green ring (video). Plug in the cable connector marked with black
plastic, into the board connector marked with a black ring
(horizontal or composite sync). Plug in the cable connector
marked with white plastic, into the board connector marked with a
white ring (vertical sync).
3 Plug in the large coaxial connectors of the video cable into the
connectors of the display. Plug in the cable connector marked
with green plastic, into the display connector marked "Video".
Plug in the cable connector marked with black plastic, into the
display connector marked "HS/CS". Plug in the cable connector
marked with white plastic, into the display connector marked "VS".
Display installation
System manual MeDis 5MP1HM 22
Connection of the Remote cables
Note: One of the remote cables is packed inside the MediCal box.
1 The Remote cables that come with MeDis are not numbered. It
does not matter which cable you connect to which display, as long
as you take the Remote inputs and outputs on the displays into
account.
2 Take one of the remote cables from the MeDis system. Plug in its
D9 female connector into one of the PC's serial ports (e.g., COM1).
If the port has 25 pins, use the D25-to-D9 interface you find in the
MediCal software box to connect the remote cable.
Plug the other end, the D9 male connector, into the Remote In
connector on one of the MGD 521 displays.
3 In case of a multi-board system, take a second Remote cable. Plug
the D9 female connector into the Remote Out connector of the
display you have connected in step 2. Plug the other end of the
cable into the Remote In connector of another display.
4 Proceed in this way until all displays are daisy-chained through the
Remote bus.
Power up the system
Connect the displays and PC to the power supply. Switch on all the
devices.

Planning Your Barcomed Windows 2000 Installation
Because of Windows 2000s Plug and Play features, it is very
important to carefully plan your BarcoMed Board Hardware and
Software installation and install the device drivers in the same
sequence that the boards are installed in the PCI slots.
When installing BarcoMed Imaging Boards for the first time in a
Windows 2000 System, Windows 2000 Plug and Play Software
identifies the BarcoMed boards by the Video Chipset utilized on each
boards. The Table below shows the BarcoMed Board, the Chip Set
utilized by the board and the driver Windows 2000 Plug and Play
selects for each imaging board.

If you have previously installed drivers for the BarcoMed Imaging
Boards in your Windows 2000 System, Windows 2000 should
correctly identify the board by their correct BarcoMed name. However,
while updating the drivers to a new version or reinstalling the current
driver Windows 2000 may identify the BarcoMed Imaging Boards by
their Video Chipset.
