• Before making connections, turn off the personal computer and the monitors.
• Start the personal computer fi rst, and then turn on the monitors. (Otherwise, the com port may be unusable.)
CAUTION:
Never connect network devices to the CAT5 IN and OUT connectors. If you do so, they may adversely affect with each other,
