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.

Remove Monitor Stand for Mounting
To prepare the monitor for alternate mounting purposes:
1. Disconnect all cables.
2. Place hands on each side of the monitor and lift up to the highest position.
3. Place monitor face down on a non-abrasive surface. (Place the screen on a 36 mm platform so that the stand is parallel
with the surface) (Figure S.1).

Figure S.1
4. Remove the two top screws connecting the monitor to the stand (Figure S.2). Turn the stand to 180° counterclockwise
(you will hear two clicks). Remove the screws from the bottom (Figure S.3) and lift off the stand. The monitor is now ready
for mounting in an alternate manner.
5. Reverse this process to reattach stand: tighten the two bottom screws, turn stand 180° counter clockwise (you will hear
two clicks), and tighten two top screws.
NOTE: Use only VESA-compatible alternative mounting method (100 mm pitch).
NOTE: Handle with care when removing monitor stand.
Figure S.2
NOTE: When the LCD is in Landscape mode, be sure the two round indents
are at the bottom of the screen (Figure S.4).
Caution: Use the original screws (4 pcs) when mounting to avoid damage to
the monitor and stand. To fulfil the safety requirements the monitor
must be mounted to an arm which guaranties the necessary stability
under consideration of the weight of the monitor. The LCD monitor
should only be used with an approved arm (e.g. GS mark).
