Device differences

• Pearl Nano: this content is filed as a sub-heading (### View the video output port status) nested under "Status and monitoring" rather than as its own top-level page as on Pearl-2/Mini/Nexus. Pearl Nano's version also omits the closing "You can also view video output status using the Epiphan Live control interface" sentence — consistent with Pearl Nano having no Epiphan Live dashboard.
