Turn off your computer and disconnect the power cable.
Connect either the white (digital DVI-D) or the blue (analog D-sub) display connector cable to the corresponding video port on the back of your computer. Do not use both cables on the same computer. The
only case in which both cables can be used is if they are connected to two different computers with appropriate video systems. (Graphics are for illustration only. System appearance may vary).
Connect the upstream USB port (cable supplied) to an appropriate USB port on your computer .
Connect USB peripherals to the downstream USB ports (rear or side) on the monitor. (See rear or bottom view for details.)
Connect the DC power cable for your monitor to the power port on the back of the monitor.
Plug the power cables for your computer and monitor into a nearby outlet.
Turn on the monitor and computer.
If your monitor displays an image, installation is complete. If it does not display an image, see Solving Problems.
Use the cable holder on the monitor stand to neatly organize the cables.
NOTE: If your computer does not support the DVI connector, you can leave the cable unconnected or remove it.
NOTE: For USB peripherals already connected to your computer, changing the USB connection to your monitor is not necessary.
