•Before making connections, turn off the personal computer and the monitors.

•Start the personal computer first, and then turn on the monitors. (Otherwise, the com port may be unusable.)

CAUTION:

Never connect network devices to the CAT5 IN and OUT connectors. If you do so, they may adversely affect with each other, causing breakdown.

NOTE:

If your PC (IBM or IBM compatible) is equipped only with a 25-pin serial port connector, a 25-pin serial port adapter is required. Contact your dealer for details.

If you use RS-232C control and CAT5 video connection, please switch the input select switch on CAT5 Tx BOX (on page 12) to side “USB” when connecting with USB cable for power supply, or to side “RS232C” when connecting with an auxiliary DC power adapter.
