Selecting Video Input
The rear of your monitor has two video input connectors to connect one or two computers (see “Connecting Two Computers, on page 5”). The Video Input LEDs located on the front panel of the monitor indicate which connector is receiving input. Use either auto or manual selection to select the appropriate input option.
Auto Selection
When you first connect your computer to the monitor, the monitor automatically selects one of the following combinations, depending on which connector is receiving input.
