Notes on Video Connections
It is very important to have the entire system designed and
all products specifi ed prior to installation. When developing
applications and confi guring connections, special atten-
tion must be paid to the types of video outputs that will be
utilized.
The TGM-100 essentially has two video busses active at
any one time. The HDMI and DVI outputs comprise one
bus; the S-Video, Composite Video and Component Video
comprise the other. In almost all cases, the TGM-100
Digital Media Server will display its GUI on a primary TV
display (or multiple TVs).
The best video performance will be obtained by using the
TGM-100’s HDMI output connected to a High Defi nition TV.
The HDMI output can be used simultaneously with the S-
Video, Component Video and/or Composite Video outputs,
depending on the application. When the HDMI output is
being utilized, the DVI output should not be connected.
The following chart summarizes the video outputs and their
compatibility:

In systems that utilize touch panels that display Compos-
ite Video, Option #2 should be used for the best primary
video display where Component Video inputs are available.
In situations where Component Video inputs are not avail-
able, use Option #3.
Note: When the S-Video and/or Composite Video Outputs
are connected, the Component Video output becomes
unavailable.
The DVI output is for use only with the Sunfi re TGM-DVC
DVI to Composite Video Converter when touch panels are
being utilized in the system. Further information is available
in Touch Panel Video Connections on page 16 of this
manual and in the TGM-DVC Installation Manual.
