Compaq Deskpro platforms ensuring cross-compatibility and
backward-compatibility. The resulting solution enables
customers to manage and control ongoing software maintenance
costs. The UDM is available on the Support Software CD for
Compaq Desktop, Portable, and Workstation Products and the

3. Connect the monitor signal cable 1to the 15-pin connector
on the rear panel of the computer and tighten the screws.
✎Be sure the signal cable aligns with the 15-pin connector. Do not
force the cable onto the connector or you may damage the signal
cable.
4. Connect the monitor power cord 2to the rear panel of the
monitor, then plug the other end into an electrical outlet
that is easily accessible and close to the monitor.
!WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your
equipment, do not disable the power cord grounding feature. This
equipment is designed to be connected to a grounded (earthed)
power outlet that is easily accessible to the operator. The grounding
plug is an important safety feature.

USB Connectors
The base of the monitor has two Universal Serial Bus (USB)
connectors. Use USB connector ❶to connect the USB signal
cable to the computer. Use connector ❷to connect USB
compatible plug and play devices such as a keyboard, mouse, or
joystick if supported by your computer. This feature provides
USB pass-through and does not support USB host requirements.
CAUTION: This USB connector is not designed for use with high
speed USB devices such as a video camera, scanner, etc. Compaq
recommends connecting high speed devices directly to the computer.
✎These USB connectors operate as a pass-through system. Your
computer must have a USB host controller installed for any
USB-connected devices to operate.
CAUTION: To prevent deterioration of signal transfer or malfunction of
USB devices, USB cables should not exceed 9.75 feet (2.95 meters) in
length. This specific length includes both the USB upstream cable and the
USB downstream cable.
