The LCD display comes with a breakout cable to connect power, video and audio.
Each cable is marked for easy identification.
Attach the “TO LCD MONITOR” to the LCD display, the “POWER IN” to the AC adapter or
12V adapter and connect a composite video output from your computer to the “VIDEO1 IN”.
There is an extra video input for connecting a secondary video source such as your camcorder for
monitoring. The “AUDIO INPUT” is mono and can be used as a audio monitor for your camcorder.
Note: The LCD display accepts a composite video input. If your computer has an S Video output
you will need a composite to S Video adapter. We sell these adapters for $25 or they can be
purchased at any Radio Shack store.
