Setting Up Your Studio Hybrid
Connect Using the DVI Connector
Connect the display using a DVI cable (which
usually has white connectors at both ends).
If your display already has a VGA cable (with
blue connectors at both ends) connected to
your display, disconnect the VGA cable and use
a DVI cable.
If your display only has a VGA connector, use a
VGA cable with the VGA-to-DVI adapter (white
plug) included with your computer.
Connect Using an HDMI Connector
Connect the display using an HDMI cable.
NOTE:
You can purchase additional VGA-
to-DVI adapters, as well as DVI and HDMI
cables from the Dell website at
dell.com
.
Connect the Display
Your computer uses one of two different
connectors for the display. The HDMI connector
is a high performance digital connector that
carries both video and audio signals for displays
such as TVs and monitors with integrated
speakers. The DVI connector is also a high
performance digital connector, but it does
not carry an audio signal. This connector can
be used for displays such as monitors and
projectors that do not have speakers.
Check your TV or monitor to see which type of
connectors are available. Refer to the following
table when identifying the connectors on your
display to select the connection type you will
use.
DVI
HDMI
VGA
DVI
Connect the display using ONLY ONE of the
following connectors: the white DVI connector
or the HDMI connector.
NOTE:
The HDMI will not have a display
signal if both a DVI and an HDMI cables are
connected because the DVI connector has
priority over the HDMI connector.
