These easy start-up tips will guide you in making the connections to get you up and running.

USING WITH A DESKTOP PC OR LAPTOP

1.Prior to connecting the monitor, if you have a desktop monitor connected to your PC, please insure that the video card refresh rate is set within the

Monitors frequency range by going to

Start…Settings…Control

Panel…Display…Settings…Advanced…Adapter.

Set the Adapter refresh rate to 60Hz or “Adapter Default”. This applies to the three supported resolutions of 640×480, 800×600 and 1024×768.

Otherwise, the monitor will not display and the unit will go into standby mode (Yellow-orange LED).

2.Plug the AC power cord from the power source (outlet) to the AC input of the monitor.

3.Connect the VGA cable provided from your computer’s VGA output to the input on the monitor.
