Can the vga interface of the monitor be hot-swapped?

In principle, VGA does not support hot plug.

However, general products will be handled by EMC in the circuit, and occasional hot plug may not damage the equipment. Or some chips have their own protection level of static electricity or surge, and you won't have any problem with hot plugging occasionally. But VGA hot plug is not supported. Therefore, for VGA that does not support hot plug, it is recommended not to hot plug. Moreover, hot plug will not damage the wires, but only the equipment.

Hot plug refers to the way of plugging and unplugging equipment when it is powered on. Interfaces and devices that support hot plug can greatly facilitate the use of parents.

Hot swap ≠ direct pull

Dear friends, the understanding of hot plug is that it can be plugged and used directly, so it will always be unplugged directly. In fact, this is a complete misunderstanding.

Although the hot plug function is mainly based on hardware design, whether these devices are in use or not and whether it has an impact on the use of other devices still needs to be confirmed in the operating system. The way to confirm is to select the corresponding device in the operating system and use functions such as "uninstall" and "eject". You can only pull it out when prompted to uninstall or eject.

Take a USB flash drive as an example. When some files are being read and written, the system will prevent users from using the pop-up function, which is also a measure to ensure the integrity of the user's U disk. If you can't eject all files after closing, you can close the drawing software residing in the system, because they may be reading the files on the U disk in the background.

In addition, the current data cable is also relatively precise, so don't be rude when hot plugging, and pay attention to static electricity like installing other computer hardware. Before plugging and unplugging equipment, it is best to touch the computer chassis, heating pipes, water pipes, etc. Release static electricity.
