Safety precautions
■
Read all instructions before using the monitor, and save them for later
use.
■
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
■
To avoid electrical shock, never open the monitor case.
■
Never use the monitor if the power cable has been damaged. Do not allow
anything to rest on the power cable.
■
The openings in the monitor cabinet are for ventilation. Do not block
or cover these openings. Do not insert anything into these openings. If
you put the monitor in a bookcase or some other enclosed space, be sure
to leave space for ventilation.
■
Do not expose the monitor to rain or use near water. Turning on a
monitor that has been exposed to moisture will cause damage. If the
monitor gets wet, unplug it, and contact technical support.
■
This monitor is equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug as a safety
feature. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type outlet. If you are
unable to insert the plug into an outlet, contact an electrician to install
the appropriate outlet. Do not try to remove any of the prongs.
■
If any problems occur, unplug the monitor and contact technical support.

Using Your EV Series Monitor
Installing the monitor
Installing the monitor consists of two procedures: attaching the base and
connecting the monitor cables.
If you are setting up your system for the first time, refer to the setup poster
for more information about connecting additional peripherals.
To attach the base:
Carefully set the monitor on its side with the bottom of the monitor
1
facing you.
Hold the base so that the narrow end is pointed toward the back of the
2
monitor.
Align the four hooks on the bottom of the base with the corresponding
3
slots on the bottom of the monitor.
Slide the base toward the front of the monitor so that all hooks are
4
securely in place. A retaining latch built into the base clicks into place
when the base is correctly attached.
Carefully set the monitor upright and place the monitor on a sturdy, level
5
surface.

To connect the power and video cables:
Position the monitor and the computer so that you can easily get at the
1
back panel of each. Make sure all power cables can reach a properly
grounded electrical outlet.
Connect one end of the video cable that came with the monitor to the
2
matching video connector on the back of the monitor. The connector
attaches only one way. If you cannot attach the cable easily, match the
“D” shape of the connectors by turning the connector upside down and
trying again.

Connect the other end of the video cable to the matching blue video
3
connector on the back of your computer.
Tighten the screws on the video cable connectors to keep them from
4
coming loose. Tightening the screws also prevents radio and TV
interference.
Connect the power cord that came with the monitor to the AC power
5
connector at the back of the monitor. To maintain FCC standards, only
use the cord that came with the monitor.
Plug the other end of the power cord into a properly grounded electrical
6
outlet.

Removing the base
To remove the base:
Turn off the system, then disconnect the monitor’s video and power
1
cables.
Carefully set the monitor on its side with the bottom of the monitor
2
facing you.
Rotate the base so that you can easily get to the retaining latch on the
3
bottom of the monitor.
Press down on the retaining latch. While holding down the latch, slide
4
the base toward the back of the monitor.
Installing the monitor
5
Starting the monitor
To start the monitor:
Press the power button once. The power LED lights and the monitor
1
demagnetizes itself for about five seconds.
Caution
Turn on the computer.
2
Once the system is running, the power LED on the monitor should be
3
green. If not, check the connections. For troubleshooting information,
see the “Troubleshooting” section of this guide.
Adjust the controls to get the best picture. Experiment with the display
4
settings to choose the ideal image size and position for you. See the
“Adjusting display settings” section in this guide for information about
changing your display.
Do not store tapes or diske ttes next to t he monitor because
the monitor generates a strong magnetic field during
startup. This field can erase or damage data stored on
magnetic tapes or diskettes.
