3. How to assemble your monitor hardware
If the computer is turned on you must turn it off before continuing. 
Do not plug-in or turn-on the power to the monitor until instructed to do so. 
1. Unpack the monitor and place it on a stable surface.
2. Connect the video cable.
Do not use both DVI-D cable and D-Sub cable on the 
same PC. The only case in which both cables can be 
used is if they are connected to two different PCs with 
appropriate video systems. 
Connect one end of the DVI-D cable to the monitor 
DVI-D socket and the other end to the DVI-D port on 
your computer. (optional)
The DVI-D format is used for direct digital connection 
between source video and digital LCD monitors or 
projectors. The digital video signals produce a superior 
quality picture than analog video signals.
Connect the plug of the D-Sub cable (at the end without 
the ferrite filter) to the monitor D-Sub socket. Connect the 
other plug of the D-Sub cable (at the end with the ferrite 
filter) to the computer video D-Sub socket. 
Tighten all finger screws to prevent the plugs from acci-
dently falling out during use.

3. Connect the power cable to the monitor.
Plug one end of the power cord into the socket labelled 
‘POWER IN’ on the rear of the monitor. Do not connect 
the other end to a power outlet just yet.
