Do you need a video card?

To use the Multiple Scan 15AV Display, you need compatible video circuitry built into your computer or a compatible video card installed in your computer. If you are unsure whether your computer has the appropriate built- in video capability, check the technical specifications that came with your computer or check with an Apple-authorized dealer or service provider.

If your computer does not have built-in video capability, you need to install a video card (available from an Apple-authorized dealer or service provider). Depending on your computer model, you will need either a NuBus™ card or a PCI card. You should install the video card before you connect the monitor to your computer. For instructions on installing a card inside your computer, see the manual that came with your computer or video card.

Do you need an adapter?

Some Macintosh computer models and some video cards from manufacturers other than Apple require an adapter to connect the monitor to the computer. Adapters are available from an Apple-authorized dealer or service provider.

Using more than one monitor

If your computer has NuBus or PCI expansion slots, you can connect additional monitors to your computer. You may need to install a video card for each additional monitor you are using. See the documentation that came with your computer for information on working with additional monitors.
