on the rear of the 9000. This connector is located on the
upper
left as you look at the rear of the machine .
3.
Install the monitor by plugging the monitor cable (15 Pin Male) into the
first slot on the bottom on the rear of the 9000. Tighten the screws
so that the cable is secure. Connect the other end of the same cable
to the rear of the monitor (15 Pin Female) and tighten down the screws .
4. Install the AC line cord on the rear of the 9000 and plug it into
