Abstract
A method and interface for controlling a display monitor through a multi-channel coupler detects a type of the display monitor and selects a channel plan defining a connectivity between the channels of the coupler, based on the type of the display monitor. The channel plan defines a connectivity between the channels of the coupler and a plurality of display control signals. Each channel of the coupler is connected in accordance with the selected channel plan. The display types can be for example analog or digital. The method and apparatus can be used to drive two analog display monitors from a DVI-I compliant interface.
