MONITOR OUTPUTS If you have the VMX200-SYS model, you have to connect only one monitor. The VMX200-SYS-1 and VMX200-SYS-Q each require two monitors. Refer to Figure 6. The VMX200-SYS-Q uses an overlay. This allows a quad display. The location of the monitors is important. The graphical map monitor must always be placed on the left and the video display monitor must always be placed on the right.
