Connecting the Monitor
On the back of the monitor are two plug-in connections; one for the AC
power cord, and the other for the signal cable from the video card.
Power off both the monitor and PC.
Connect the 15 pin VGA connector of the supplied signal cable to the output
VGA video connector on the PC and the matching input connector on the rear
of the monitor. The connectors will mate only one way. If you cannot attach
the cable easily, turn the connector upside down and try again. When mated,
tighten the thumbscrews to secure the connection.
Locate the appropriate MAC to VGA adapter block at your local computer
store. This adapter changes the high density 3 row 15 pin VGA connector to
the correct 15 pin 2 row connection to mate with your MAC. Attach the other
end of the signal cable to the side of the adapter block with 3 rows.
Connect the attached adapter block/signal cable to the video output on your
MAC.
One end of the AC power cord is connected into the AC power connector on
the back of the monitor. The other end is plugged into a properly grounded
three-prong AC outlet.
Power on the PC, then the monitor.
If you see the SELF DIAGNOSTICS message, check the signal cable and
connectors.
After using the system, power off the monitor, then the PC.

Microphone Operation
On the left side there is a MIC (Microphone) jack. By plugging a microphone in
here, it may reduce the long length of cable needed to reach the PC's sound card.
In order to use this MIC jack, you need to use a cable (supplied) to plug into the
rear of the monitor (MIC OUT) and into the MIC input jack of your sound card (if
available).
Audio Features
A major feature of this monitor is its built-in audio system. This conveniently
integrates a stereo audio amplifier and speakers without taking up any more
space. Because the monitor is designed like this, you can easily upgrade to audio
capable multimedia applications by attaching your PC with sound card to the back
of this monitor. It will result in significantly less cabling and space requirements.

Video Memory Modes
The monitor has 34 memory locations for display modes, 10 of which are
factory preset to popular video modes.
Display Modes (Resolution)
User Modes
Modes 11-34 are empty and can accept new video data. If the monitor detects
a new video mode that has not been present before or is not one of the preset
modes, it stores the new mode automatically in one of the empty modes
starting with mode 11.
If you use up the 24 blank modes and still have more new video modes, the
monitor replaces the information in the user modes starting with mode 11.
Recalling Display Modes
When your monitor detects a mode it has seen before, it automatically recalls
the image settings you may have made the last time you used that mode.
You may, however, manually force a recall of each of the 10 preset modes by
pressing the Recall button. All preset modes are automatically recalled as the
monitor senses the incoming signal.
The ability to recall the preset modes is dependent on the signal coming from
your PC’s video card or system. If this signal does not match any of the factory
modes, the monitor automatically sets itself to display the image.
