Introduction  
 
 
 A Multiple Display Control (MDC) is an application allowing various displays to be easily and simultaneously 
operated on a PC. RS-232C, a standard of serial communication, is used for the communication between a PC and 
a display. Therefore, a serial cable should be connected between the serial port on a PC and the serial port on a 
display.
