eMachines Flat Panel Monitor Connecting video inputs

Using Your eMachines Flat-Panel Monitor

Connecting video inputs

To connect video sources to your monitor:

1Position your computer and the monitor so you can reach the back of each.

Tip (19-inch model)

When using the optional speaker bar (described in “Setting up the optional speaker bar” on page 11), we recommend that you use the included right-angle VGA cable for the video connection so the speaker bar does not obstruct the cable. In the United States, if you are using a DVI connection, you can order a right-angle DVI cable from www.gateway.com .

2If your computer has a digital video connector (DVI), connect a DVI video cable (not included) to the white connector under the back of the display. The DVI jack is only available on the 19-inch model. In the United States, you can buy a DVI video cable from www.gateway.com .

- OR -

Connect the blue VGA video cable to the blue VGA video connector under the back of the display. (The appearance of your cable and connector may vary from that shown.)

3Make sure that your computer is turned off, then connect the other end of the video cable to the matching video port on the back of your computer.
