Getting ready to set up

Before you set up your display, make sure you have easy access to the following items that came with your Apple Multiple Scan Display:

Apple Multiple

Scan Display

Adapter for

IBM PC-compatible computers

User’s guide

Power cord

Note: Your power cord may appear different from the one pictured here. In addition, the software that shipped with your display is useful only for Macintosh computers.

IMPORTANT For Display Data Channel (DDC) video support you need to use a DDC cable instead of the PC adapter and display cable that came with your display. DDC video is a new communications standard used by some PC manufacturers to identify the display capabilities to the host computer system. If your IBM PC-compatible computer has this capability, you can use a DDC cable. You can acquire a DDC cable from an Apple-authorized dealer or service provider.
