Using USB Connectors
The base of the monitor has five Universal Serial Bus (USB)
connectors. Four of these connectors, 1, 3, 4, and 5, are for
connecting USB compatible Plug and Play devices such as a
keyboard, mouse, or video camera. USB connector 2is used to
connect the USB signal cable to the computer. The USB signal
cable is included with the monitor.
Using BNC Connectors
A signal cable with BNC connectors may be used in place of the
15-pin signal cable. To connect two computers to the monitor, a
BNC connector may be used together with the 15-pin signal
cable. If you have separately purchased a signal cable with BNC
connectors, use the following instructions to connect the signal
cable to the monitor.
✎Fault Management and Asset Control are not supported by the
monitor when BNC connectors are used.

appear on the screen.
■ Degauss - Corrects image distortion or color impurity
caused by external magnetic fields.
■ Input: DSub (BNC) - Select when using a 15-pin signal
cable and BNC connectors together. If you are using only
one of these cables/connectors, this function automatically
adjusts.
■ Language - Lists five languages available to display on-

Some functions will have up to three menu levels.
✎This monitor uses an aperture grille CRT for excellent screen
performance. At times the shadows of two small horizontal
lines may appear on the screen background. This is not a
defect. The wires are there to reduce susceptibility to
horizontal vibration.
