Typically it is possible to have one particular Microsoft Windows or X-windows (for Linux and Unix users) screen mode to work with that monitor, but there are many screen modes which the workstation monitor does not show.

It is possible to damage equipments when playing with PC vidoe hardware and workstation monitorts. If the monitor has standard video inputs, is workign properly, cable is properly constructed and everything is connected to properly grounded power outlet then the risk of damaging the graphics card is minimal. Some monitors can be damaged by sending wrong frequencies to them, so be sure that you send right frequencies to monitor.

There are lots of different montors around, but most of those monitors use standard analogue video interfaces so they can be connected to PC video card with only quite small modifications (correct cable and possibly some simple electronics). Nowadays the modern VGA cards are quite freely programmable devices and in most cases it is possible to make the VGA card to send out correct signals for the monitor at least in one screen resolution.

Generally, yes. SingleControl is built to be used on a multiple system setup with multiple displays. However for smaller installations you may be able to get away with using just one or two monitors. Some monitors do allow multiple sources - 2 PCs per monitor. Check with the monitor manufacturer for specs. Although it won’t be automatic, as you would have to switch the monitor’s source with a button or similar way, you would still need only one keyboard & mouse on your desktop.

A Workstation is a high-level stand-alone machine usually designed for a particular purpose, such as CAD engineering, digital content creation, or data modeling, where as a PC (personal computer) is not as sophisticated or powerful and is generally used for basic office and home applications.

Sun Group's Plasma TV has a VGA/RGB port connection so you can connect to your PC. The Plasma TV can also be used alone as your PC monitor, you can watch TV and use your PC at the same time. The onboard digital scaling engine accepts various computer signals and maps them to fit within 852 X 480 pixels. Compatible signals display resolutions up to 1280 X 1024.

Some manufacturers make special grpahcis cards for PCs which allow PC to be succesfully used with fixed frequency monitors. Fixed Frequency Video FAQ at http://www.devo.com/video/ has more information on those cards which make is possible to use fixed frequency monitor as general purpose PC monitor.

Support for dual-monitor systems was introduced with version 5.5. The program will detect dual-monitor systems by itself and accommodate its appearance automatically.

Yes. However, Exceed 6.2 or 7.1 or newer with Exceed 3D must be installed on your PC. Exceed is a X-server package for Windows. Exceed 3D extends the X-server with the remote GL library. Remote GL allows hardware support on the local PC box. Abaqus CAE has not been certified with other freeware X-servers for Windows like CYGWIN though you can try to download and use them on your own. Abaqus CAE should be displayed fine on all UNIX workstations, including Linux with remote GL support like Red Hat

There is usually a power indicator light on the front of the monitor. The power indicator light should be green, which indicates that the monitor is on and receiving a signal from the PC. If you have a green light, but no display, attempt to adjust the brightness and contrast controls on the monitor. If the indicator light is not on, verify that the monitor is receiving power and switched-on.

Griffin Technology, among other companies, sells these adapters.

If there is no activity on the 935 screen, then as far as the 935 goes there has not been an attempt to communicate with it.

The user must click on the UPDATE command button in the Hardware search program. See the attached file Remote-NoCom.jpg for what the blank screen looks like if the 935 does NOT receive any communications.
