Setting the resolution of your Dicom Theater display

In order to set the resolution of your Dicom Theater display you 
must be logged in using an account with administrator privileges.

click on the desktop and select “Properties”. 

2. Select the “Settings” tab.

3. Select the rectangle that represents the first Dicom Theater 

display attached to the BarcoMed 2MP2CP display controller 
you are working with.

NOTE: If you are using the VGA capabilities of your 
BarcoMed 2MP2CP display controller, the resolution for the 
first display may be set to a VGA resolution of “640 x 480” 
pixels with 16 colors and a default refresh rate. If your 
BarcoMed 2MP2CP controller is not running VGA, the display 
may not be enabled yet. To enable the display, check the 
“Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor” checkbox, 
but do NOT click the “Apply” button at this time.

4. Select the “Adapter” tab and then click on the “List All

your Dicom Theater display supports from the dialog box and 
click “OK”.

5. Click “OK” on the bottom of the Adapter Control Panel. If the 

“OK” button on the bottom of the Adapter Control Panel is 
not visible, press the “TAB” key once and then press 
“CTRL”+“Enter” to select “OK”.

6. Click “OK” in the “Windows will now apply your new 

desktop settings” dialog box. Your Dicom Theater display 
should now synchronize and display the Windows desktop.
