I don't think it is supported.  In any case, I think VMS only supports
multiple monitors when they are all the same type.

The usual low-end graphics adapters for DEC 3000 systems are:

PMAGB-B         HX or SFB       8bpp color/     1280x1024 @ 66 or 72 Hz,
                                grayscale,      or 1024x864 @ 72 Hz
                                2D accel

PMAGD-AA        HX+             8bpp or 24 bpp, variable resolution,
PMAGD-BA                        accelerated     rotary switch
                                framebuffer

There's some (not VMS specific) turbochannel option information here:
