Connecting the Cables

1.Place the monitor in a convenient, well-ventilated location near the computer.

2.Connect a VGA signal cable or DVI-D signal cable.

NOTE: For models with both VGA and DVI-D connectors, the monitor is capable of supporting either analog or digital input. The video mode is determined by the video cable used. The monitor will automatically determine which inputs have valid video signals. The inputs can be selected by pressing the + (Plus) button on the front panel or through the On-Screen Display (OSD) feature by pressing the Menu button.

For analog operation, use the VGA signal cable provided. Connect the VGA signal cable to the VGA connector on the rear of the monitor and the other end to the VGA connector on the computer.

For digital operation, use the DVI-D signal cable (not provided) (select models). Connect the DVI-D signal cable to the DVI connector on the rear of the monitor and the other end to the DVI connector on the computer.

3.Connect the built-in monitor speakers (on select models) to the computer using the audio cable.

NOTE: An optional speaker bar that mounts on to the monitor is available from HP.

4.Connect one end of the power cable to the AC power connector on the back of the monitor, and the other end to an electrical wall outlet.
