The "SDVO Link to DVI module" (SDLD-1) offers the option to connect an additional (second) display to the PIP. Together with the Intel Embedded Graphics driver, it provides following graphical display output combinations:
The two connected displays can be identical or totally different (size, resolution, type). The module can be added/mounted easily on the on-board (S)DVO interface of the PIPs and can be used in all housings.
The solution still offers enough space for additional PC/104-Plus and/or PC/104 cards.
The combination of a PIP and SDLD-1 is a complete, compact, and clever solution for industrial applications that require two graphical display outputs. It offers a flexible, cost-efficient possibility to control two displays with one PC.
The SDLD-1 module can be used in all Core Duo based PIPs equipped with a sDVO interface. As example, it works on the PIP20-1 and PIP22-1.
Restrictions:
1. No 3D graphics capabilities
As the standard Graphics driver does not support the simultaneous operation of two TMDS transmitter, a special MPL AG adapted Intel Embedded Graphics driver has to be used together with the SDLD-1. Please be aware that this driver by design offers nearly no 3D graphics capabilities!
2. No analog interface available
The expansion DVI connector on the SDLD-1 only supports the digital DVI interface (DVI-D). Therefore all displays requiring analog input signals do not work on the SDLD-1 (even a DVI to CRT adapter will not help).
3. Maximum LCD resolution
The SDLD-1 supports a maximum LCD resolution of up to 1920x1200 (WUXGA).
