Connecting a video input to Meteor-II /Digital
Connect video sources to Matrox Meteor-II /Digital’s video
input connector, using the optional DBHD100-TO-OPEN. This
cable can be customized to fit with the connector on your video
source. See Appendix D for the pinouts, signals, and mating
connector supplier.
Connecting Matrox Meteor-II /Digital to other boards
The VMChannel interface allows the transfer of data to other
Matrox boards. Insert a VMChannel backplane (available with
interconnect kits) across the VMChannel interface to connect
the boards. Note that when connecting multiple Matrox boards,
at least one of the boards you are connecting must be
bus-controller capable. Matrox Meteor-II is not bus-controller
capable.
