2-16 Installation
Connecting a Host Video Source
Using Analog Video (all models)
1. Connect one end of the included six-foot video cable to the
female HD-15 video input connector of the monitor.
2. Connect the other end to the VGA port of the computer or to the
video generator VGA port if used.
Using Digital Video (1500M, 1700M, 2000M only):
1. Connect one end of the DVI cable to the female DVI video input
connector.
2. Connect the other end to the output of any DVI video source.
Connecting the Optional Touchscreen Interface
An optional touchscreen provides a high-resolution touch input
system. Driver software included with the monitor allows the
touchscreen to function with many popular Microsoft®
Windows® -based industrial applications as a pointing device
(i.e., mouse).
TIP
You can use longer cables (up to 50 feet at lower
resolutions), provided they are properly
constructed.
Video amplifiers are available for longer distances.
TIP
You may connect the monitor to a video generator
that does not conform to VGA standards, as long as
the generator provides analog RGB video signals
(0.714V above reference black into 75 ohms) and
separate horizontal and vertical sync signals.
Depending on the signal, the monitor may or may
not function properly.
TIP
If DVI cable runs longer than 10 meters are
desired, then use a DVI cable extension.
