How to install your monitor hardware

2. Connect the video cable.   

Connect one end of the DVI-D cable to the monitor 
DVI-D socket and the other and to the DVI-D port on 
your computer. (optional)

The DVI-D format is used for direct digital connection 

between source video and digital LCD monitors or 
projectors. The digital video signals produce a 
superior quality picture than analog video signals.

If you don’t have an appropriate DVI-D port on your 
computer, you can use the standard video D-Sub cable. 

Connect the plug of the D-Sub cable (at the end without 
the ferrite filter) to the monitor D-Sub socket. Connect 
the other plug of the D-Sub cable (at the end with the 
ferrite filter) to the computer video D-Sub socket. 

Tighten all finger screws to prevent the plugs from 
accidently falling out during use.

3. Connect the power cable to the monitor.

Plug one end of the power cord into the socket labelled 
’POWER IN’ on the rear of the monitor. Do not connect 
the other end to a power point just yet.
