Appendix A Using Multiple NVIDIA GPU-Based Cards GeForce4 Ti 4200 Panels: nView Span/Clone Mode Both digital display and TV are connected to the GeForce4 Ti card for nView Span and Clone mode functionality. For nView multi-display functionality, display 3 (TV) appears grayed because it is not turned on; this is the reason if you click Identify, the number 1 appears on both the digital display and TV. If you enabled (turned on) the TV display, making this a Dualview setup (vs. nView Span/Clone), then if you click Identify, the number 3 appears on the TV. Figure A.1 Display Properties Settings: Display 1 (Digital Display) nView Span/Clone Mode 143 NVIDIA Corporation
