Quick Start

To attach the MultiSync LCD monitor to your system, follow these instructions:

1. Turn off the power to your computer.

2.

For the PC or MAC with DVI digital output:

 Connect the DVI signal cable to the connector of the display card in your

system (

Figure A.1

). Tighten all screws.

For the PC with Analog output:

 Connect the 15-pin mini D-SUB to DVI-A signal cable to the connector of the display

card in your system (

Figure A.2

).

For the MAC:

 Connect the MultiSync Macintosh cable adapter to the computer, then attach the 15-pin mini D-SUB signal

cable to the MultiSync Macintosh cable adapter (

Figure B.1

).

NOTE:

Some Macintosh systems do not require a Macintosh cable adapter.

3. Connect the DVI signal cable to the connector on the back of the monitor. Place the video signal cable (

Figure C.1

).

Connect only either VGA or DVI to input 2.

NOTE:

Incorrect cable connections may result in irregular operation, damage display quality/components of LCD module
and/or shorten the module’s life.

Collect cables and keep them in the stand with attached cable cover. The cable cover can be attached on the front or back
side of Tilt Stand (

Figure C.1, C.2

).

Please check Tilt, Rise and Lower monitor screen and screen rotation when you manage cables.

4. Connect one end of the power cord to the AC inlet on the back of the monitor and the other end to the power outlet

(

Figure C.1

).

NOTE:

Please refer to Caution section of this manual for proper selection of AC power cord.

5. The Vacation Switch on the left side of the monitor must be turned on. Turn on the monitor with the front power button

(

Figure D.1

).

NOTE:

The Vacation Switch is a true on/off switch. If this switch is on the OFF position, the monitor cannot be turned on
using the front button. DO NOT switch on/off repeatedly.

NOTE:

For the MAC with digital output: Before turning on the MAC, the DVI Input mode must be set to DIGITAL in
“DVI SELECTION” of OSM by pressing “SELECT” button then “CONTROL” button when the DVI signal cable is
connected to the DVI-I connector (Input1) of the monitor. Otherwise the MAC may not turn on.

6. Turn on the computer. No-touch Auto Adjust automatically adjusts the monitor to optimal settings upon initial setup for

most timings. For further adjustments, use the following OSM controls:

• Auto Contrast (Analog input only)

• Auto Adjust (Analog input only)

Refer to the 

Controls

 section of this User’s Manual for a full description of these OSM controls.
