Multiple Monitors
Your RADEON 8500/RADEON 7500 provides dual display
functionality and TV Out from a single video card. This new
technology changes the way you view your PC, TV, and video
graphics.
The RADEON 8500/RADEON 7500 uses HydraVision™
software to create a seamless multiple display desktop. Multiple
monitor display works as one large work area. A single
application can span all monitors, or many applications can
occupy their own specific monitor. This feature will take your
PC’s graphics and video capabilities to the next level.
Connecting your RADEON 8500/RADEON 7500 to your
monitors
The RADEON 8500/RADEON 7500 provides support for one
DVI-I monitor or two VGA monitors using the supplied DVI-I-
to-VGA adapter. A television can also be used to expand your
desktop by using the S-Video connector.
Plug the monitor cable into your card (if you are running
multiple monitors, connect their cables to the appropriate
connectors), then turn on the computer and monitor(s).
To connect a flat panel to the RADEON 8500/RADEON 7500
use the DVI-I connector as shown on the following page. To
connect a VGA monitor to the DVI-I connector, plug the
supplied DVI-I-to-VGA adapter into the DVI-I connector, then
plug your monitor cable into the adapter.
When you use multiple monitors with your RADEON
8500/RADEON 7500, one monitor will always be primary. Any
additional monitor(s) will be designated as secondary.

Note
The RADEON 8500/RADEON 7500 offers
Ratiometric expansion. Ratiometric expansion (or
digital panel scaling as it is commonly known)
expands a low resolution image to fill a higher
resolution panel. However, Ratiometric expansion is
only available on the primary display. Therefore, if a
DFP is set as secondary, the extended desktop is
disabled and the resolution is less than the DFP
monitor’s native resolution. This causes the DFP
monitor to default to center mode.
