4.In the case of an old model Macintosh, you need to connect the monitor using a special Mac adaptor.

5.Turn on your computer and monitor. If your monitor displays an image, installation is complete.

You may get a blank screen depending on the type of video card you are using, if you connect simultaneously both the D-sub and DVI cables to one computer.

If you connect properly your monitor using the DVI connector but get a blank or fuzzy screen, check to see if the monitor status is set to analogue. Press Source button to have the monitor double-check the input signal source.
