Connecting the Device

This connection allows you to connect to a personal computer.

2.Connect your monitor cable.

Connect one end of a 15-pin monitor cable to the VGA VIDEO jack on the TV and the other end to the PC's video output jack. Note, if your PC's video output isn't 15-pin, you'll need an adapter that can connect to a 15-pin monitor cable.

Connect a 3.5 mm stereo mini pin cable (sometimes referred to as 1/8" stereo mini pin) to the VGA AUDIO jack on the back of the TV and the other end to the Audio Output jack on the PC.

Notes: The maximum panel resolution is 1280 x 1024. Be sure to set your PC to the correct monitor output setting.

The MultiTask Audio™ feature allows you to listen to the sound from the TV while the PC is connected. Go to page 24 for more information.
