Title: Using two screens in a mission
Post by: paulusfiret on August 06, 2012, 14:24:01

Good Evening;
I am towing a vessel with two tugs; One fore and one aft (as example);
I would like to see on the first screen the foreward tug vieuws and on the second screen the aft tug views.

The two sceens are presently connected to one laptop, but I was thinking to use two laptops for each screen instead; I have a home network in place.

What are the possibilities to get this lined-up?

Thanks in advance.

Hi
With 2008 it is possible to have 2 screens connected but I think 2nd screen
only shows chart .
Search function in 2008 will give you plenty of posts on the use of 2 monitors.

It is not supported in Extremes

You could use 2 computers with 2 accounts and play with yourself  in Multiplayer mode assisting someone in or out of harbour (english english spelling) with your 2 tugs.

Hi Sydmichel,

Thanks for reply;
Seems to be the only option.
