Description

 

Use the Input Select button to select between two different video signals that may be connected to your monitor.

 

If both VGA and DVI cables are connected to one PC, this monitor will display an image automatically just as long as a video signal is present in either

 

VGA or DVI outputs. When connecting one display to two PCs, if using screen savers, best to set both to the exact times. Whichever mouse is moved

 

first will activate that video input first.

Input select

NOTE: The floating 'Dell Self-test Feature Check' dialog appears on a black background if the monitor cannot sense

 

a video signal. Using the input select button, select the desired input to be tested either Analog Input or Digital

 

Input. Disconnect the video cable from the video card and the Dell Self-test Feature Check dialogue box will appear

 

if the display is operating correctly.
