Connecting Monitor Cables

Connecting the VGA (Analog) Cable or DVI-D (Digital) Cable

Use a VGA video cable or a DVI-D cable to connect your monitor to your computer. To use DVI, you must have a DVI-compliant graphic card. Connectors are located on the back of the monitor. Be sure the computer and monitor are turned off and unplugged.

1. To connect the VGA cable

Connect one end of the VGA video cable to the back of the monitor and the other end to the VGA video connector on the computer.

2. To connect the DVI-D cable (provided with select models)

Connect one end of the DVI-D video cable to the back of the monitor and the other end to the DVI-D video connector on the computer. You can use this cable only if your computer has a DVI compliant graphics card installed. The monitor DVI-D connector and cable are included.
