Connecting an External Color Monitor

If you plan to use an external CGA-compatible color (RGB) monitor with your Equity LT-286, follow the instructions below to connect it to the computer:

1.Be sure both the computer and monitor (as well as any other peripherals) are turned off.

2.Place your monitor near the Equity LT-286. It is easiest to connect the monitor cable if the backs of the monitor and computer face you.

3.If necessary, connect the monitor cable to the monitor. (Some monitors come with permanently attached cables.)

4.Connect the appropriate end of the monitor cable to the connector marked CRT at the back of the computer, as shown below.
