How to Enable Multiple Monitors for IGEL Agent for Imprivata

When enabled, the IGEL Agent for Imprivata (IAFI) lock screen officially supports two monitors. 

• The resolution must be the same as well as the orientation (landscape). 

• By default, when enabling two monitors, IGEL OS will automatically detect the resolution. If both monitors are the same, this is all you should need. 

To enable multi-monitor support, create a profile as follows:

IGEL OS 12

• Within UMS Web App – Configuration, select the icon to create a new profile

• In the Profile Configurator, select App Selector and choose the IGEL OS Base System.

• Go to User Interface - Display Settings and enable “Activate screen configuration”.

• Under General Settings – Number of Screens, select two (2)

• For Screen resolution, select Autodetect

If the monitors are not the same, you may need to manually set the monitors to the same resolution.

• For Screen rotation, select None

Only landscape orientation is supported

• Select the “Save and close” button and then assign the profile to the device directory where you want to apply the setting.

IGEL OS 11

• Within UMS Java console, select the option to create a new profile

• In the Profile Configurator, go to User Interface - Display – and enable Activate screen configuration

• Number of Screens should be two (2)

• For Screen resolution, select Autodetect

• For Screen rotation, orientation should be landscape only

• Select “Save” button and then assign the profile to the device directory where you want to apply the setting.
