System Configuration Guidelines
Because of the low power consumption and low heat generation
of the BarcoMed CORONIS display controller, multiple controllers
may be installed in adjacent PCI slots or adjacent to other PCI
boards. Additionally there should be no need to modify either
the PC’s power supply and/or cooling system.

BarcoMed CORONIS display controller installation
Caution: Wear a grounded, protective ESD strap during
installation or handling of the display controller. Electrostatic
charges can damage the display controller.
Prior to installing your BarcoMed CORONIS display controller(s) in
your PC please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with
both the display controller and the PCI slots in your computer.

Jumper location
There is one user changeable jumper on the BarcoMed CORONIS. It
is used to enable or disable the VGA capabilities of the display
controller.

Figure 2: VGA Jumper Enlarged View
Using the VGA capabilities of the BarcoMed CORONIS
Prior to installing the BarcoMed CORONIS, decide if you are going
to use its on-board VGA capabilities. If you are, check the setting
of the Jumper at J-1 on the display controller (see figure 2 VGA
Jumper Enlarged View). By default, VGA should be enabled, on
the top two pins.
NOTE: To use multiple BarcoMed CORONIS display controllers in a
single host with VGA enabled, you need to enable VGA on only
ONE of the BarcoMed CORONIS display controllers and disable VGA
on ALL other BarcoMed display controllers.
Examples of PCI slots
Although the BarcoMed CORONIS controller is a 64-bit board, it
may be installed in either a 64-bit or 32-bit PCI slot. However,
installing it in a 32-bit PCI slot will result in a decrease in
performance. Figure Figure 3 illustrates the types of slots so that
you can correctly identify which one to use for the
BarcoMed CORONIS.

Figure 3: PCI and RAID Controller Slots
Install the BarcoMed CORONIS controller in your computer
following these steps:
1. Turn off the power to your computer and disconnect the
power cord, however make sure that the computer chassis is
still grounded.
2. Remove the chassis cover according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Be sure to observe safety warnings.
3. If you have decided to use the on-board VGA capabilities of
the BarcoMed CORONIS (see Using the VGA capabilities of
the BarcoMed CORONIS on page 18), you must now remove
any VGA display controller(s) that are currently installed in
the computer or disable any VGA controllers that are
integrated into your PC’s motherboard.
4. Install the BarcoMed CORONIS Controller into a free PCI slot,
either 64-bit or 32-bit (see figure 3, for examples of slots).
Be sure that the display controller is seated firmly in the slot.
5. Secure the card to the chassis with the PC’s I/O panel
mounting screw, and replace the chassis cover.
6. Connect the primary display (left most display in a linear
configuration, top most in a vertical configuration) to the
uppermost connector on the BarcoMed CORONIS (the output
farthest from the motherboard – “Head 1” in figure 4

BarcoMed CORONIS display controller installation

below) using the provided DVI cable. For a dual-headed
BarcoMed CORONIS setup, connect the secondary display to
the other connector on the display controller.
7. Replace the chassis cover, reconnect the power cord, turn on
the power, and boot the system as usual.
Running multiple BarcoMed CORONIS display controllers in a single host
The physical order of the displays may vary when you are
running multiple BarcoMed CORONIS display controllers. This is
due to the PC’s PCI bus control in the system BIOS, and not the
BarcoMed display controller. It may become necessary,
depending on how your PC’s BIOS configures the PCI bus, to
switch your DVI display connections to achieve a linear desktop
configuration.
