Matrox DualHead2Go Digital SE Review

When you first run the Matrox GXM software, you are presented with a Quick Setup option, but you can go directly into the software for advanced options.  On the main screen of the software is Multi-Display Setup, Desktop Management, Keyboard Shortcuts, System Settings, Administrator Options, Help and Troubleshooting, and About options.

As mentioned previously, the two external monitors connected to the DualHead2Go Digital SE are viewed by Windows as one big monitor, which you can see if you look in the Windows Screen resolution settings.  You will see two monitors: the normal laptop display and an extra-wide external monitor.

 

The first step to set up an extended desktop is to use the Multi-Display Setup option.  Everything is probably set up by default and you may not have to touch this.  You can change the display settings for each individual monitor, such as resolution, color palette and refresh rate.  You can even set up rotation options in case you want to have one really “tall” monitor rather than an extra-wide setup.

External monitor looks like one super-wide monitor to Windows

On the next page we look at the snapping options…

Hello..
Actually we have been purchased 10 display full HD multi touch LEC with including 4 Dualhead 2go digital SE, which 8 display connected via digital SE and 2 display connected directly to graphic card.

The issue when we group all 10 displays together, instate of resolution 9600×2160 we are getting 5760 x 2160, so then those 2 displays which are directly connected to AMD have fine resolution but those 8 displays which connected to Matorx are totally stretched.

So where is the problem?
Best Regards Daneil

I'm having trouble deciphering your broken English. Are you trying to stretch a stretched desktop? The device is limited to a maximum native desktop, and cannot be infinitely stretched. Perhaps Matrox would like to chime in?…
