Plug the monitor’s power cable first into the power inlet on the monitor
and then into an electrical outlet. If a monochrome monitor has the
proper type of plug, you can plug it into the auxiliary outlet next to the
power inlet at the back of the main unit. The monitor’s power consump-
tion must not be more than 80 watts.
When you check the DIP switch settings, as defined later in this chapter,
be sure they are set correctly for the type of monitor you have.
If you have trouble getting a display, check that the brightness and con-
trast controls on the monitor are set correctly. Monitors usually have
their own power switches. Make sure the power switch is on.
