CHAPTER 2: Setting Up Your Monitor

3Plug the AC power cord into the AC power adapter, then plug the AC power cord into a power outlet. We recommend using a surge protector to protect your monitor from voltage spikes.

Caution

Do not block the ventilation openings in the power adapter. Make sure to place the adapter in a well-ventilated area.

4To make sure that the monitor’s power is correctly connected, check the power touch button on the front button panel. The power icon on the power button glows blue when plugged in or amber when no source is detected. The button glows purple when the monitor is turned off. If the power icon is not visible, power is not connected.

Important

The first time AC power is connected, the monitor initializes for about 15 seconds. While it is initializing, two of the buttons on the touch panel flash alternately. The monitor is unresponsive when AC power is initially connected. When the buttons stop flashing, the monitor turns on and looks for any incoming video signals (see “Starting the monitor” on page 28).

Disabling the automatic product tour

The monitor is configured at the factory to automatically begin playing a brief tour of the product and it’s features whenever the monitor is turned on and no input signal is present. We encourage you to watch this tour to learn about the features and capabilities of your monitor display.
