Connecting the display to your IBM PC-compatible computer

Use these instructions to connect the display to your computer.

Note: If you need to use a video card with your computer, install the card before you connect the display to your computer.

IMPORTANT Before you connect any cords or cables, make sure that your computer is turned off and unplugged.

WARNING If your display is equipped with a three-wire grounding plug—a plug that has a third (grounding) pin—this plug will fit only a grounded AC outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact a licensed electrician to replace the outlet with a properly grounded outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding plug!
