The DeltaV Dual Monitor Workstation offers a larger
viewing area, driven from a single keyboard and mouse.
Spatial placement of the applications allows the user to
quickly locate and use the appropriate application.
Each monitor can display a main graphic picture, while
faceplates and other “pop-up” pictures can be relocated to
any monitor screen. The Dual Monitor Workstation is
ready to use right out of the box. Included with DeltaV
Operate, the Dual Monitor Workstation can easily use your
existing displays to facilitate your operators’ use of the
additional monitors.

graphics. You can also use one screen area for other
applications such as a DeltaV History View.
Expands the usable screen space for a single
operator. The DeltaV Dual Monitor Workstation provides
more screen space for a single operator to view pro
process
information. This means not having to purchase another
workstation, or forcing the operator to work on a smaller
viewing area which does not provide him with the optimal
amount of information to efficiently operate the process
process.
You can use either widescreen
screen or standard screen
monitors to expand the viewing space.
The two monitors act as one large monitor, providing a
larger contiguous screen area for the operator. They can
be positioned either horizontally or vertically as shown
below. No matter which monitor arrangement selected,
the user can move the cursor across the monitors as if
they were a single monitor. Windows can be easily
positioned across the monitors, just as they are moved on
a single monitor.
Optimizes DeltaV Operate for efficient use of the
larger screen area. Display layouts are predefined to
make setup a snap. The larger screen area acts just like a
smaller screen, so no special operator training is required.
An operator can simply select a faceplate or other window
and drag it to another screen area on a different monitor, if
desired. Any process graphic can be opened on any
screen. Operators can easily swap displays among
screens.
ns. Workstations can be configured to start up with a
predefined set of user displays so the workstation
monitors can quickly be reset to a preconfigured set of
displays at any time. Operators may individually control
the display navigation on each monitor. Alternatively,
navigation for both monitors can be managed from a one
monitor. The monitors act as a single large screen which
allows the mouse to move easily between monitors.
Dual screens provide more screen area for viewing
multiple faceplates.

Easy to configure using standard operator
station graphic tools. There’s no need to learn a new
display configuration method. The Dual Monitor
Workstation is configured using the standard DeltaV
display configuration and display navigation tools. Display
dynamos and standard display layouts aid in the
development of the operator interface. This allows you to
easily take advantage of the additional screens.
Monitors can also be mounted vertically with the cursor
movement set to allow the mouse to move the pointer
vertically to access the upper screen.
