System Requirements for Setup
Hardware requirements
You have a graphic controller card with a DVI port in your
Windows/Mac (Mac is option), or SUN system. It should support the maximum graphic resolution feature of the display to be connected.
In case of using a computer, no special memory size, CPU
speed and chipsets are required.
Proper initial trial of the entire platform with its application using
a short length copper cable is recommended prior to install with the optical link.
Software requirements
No special needs, if the DVI graphic controller and display
peripheral are operational with the platform’s OS and application.
AC/DC Power Adapter Technical Advisory
The power of M5-2C2 is designed to supply to either Uplink or Downlink module by plugging the power plug.
