Notices
Please read the following notices before installing the graphics card.
• Make sure that your operating system is installed properly.
• Uninstall all previously installed drivers and display-related software such as Pivot.
• Log in as a user with administrative privileges to install the driver.
• Remove all currently installed graphics cards.
• Make sure to disable an on-board graphic controller if your computer has one. Consult

cards for a multi-display setup. If an error occurs, see Q&A in this manual.
Disconnecting power cables
Disconnect your computer and peripheral devices from the power sources.
Installing the graphics card
1
Remove the cover of the computer. (See the instruction manual for your computer.)
Caution: ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) Breakdown
Static electricity could damage delicate components of the computer and the graphics
card. Discharge static electricity by touching metal parts of the computer prior to
installation. Do not touch electric parts or terminals.
2
Remove any existing graphics card(s), if any, and/or a bracket from the slot.
Caution: Burn
Internal parts may be hot if the computer has been turned on previously.
3
Install the graphics card in the slot on the computer rmly so that it does not touch
any part of the computer.
Caution: Ventilation
Ensure the proper airow to cool the graphics card by, for example, leaving the
adjacent slot unoccupied. Keep the computer's internal cables away from the cooling
fan or keep things away that could get caught in the fan. (Labels are easy to peel off
when heated.)
Important: Using the graphics card without its fan working could cause a failure.
4
Secure the bracket to the chassis of the computer.
Note: If the bracket is not installed completely, the DVI cable cannot be inserted all
the way in. You can connect the DVI cable supplied with the display to the graphics
card rst, and then secure it to the chassis.
5
When installing more than one LV22P2 cards, repeat the above steps until all cards
are installed.
Note: There is a limit to the number of the cards one computer can take depending
on the types of cards, operating systems, and display drivers. Do not exceed the
number limit.
6
Put the cover back on the computer.

ENGLISH
Connecting the display
Important
When using LV22P2 on a ME253i2 display...
ME253i2 is loaded with two sets of Extended Display Identication Data (EDID). EDID
is a data structure stored within a display describing its own information including
supporting resolution. Both landscape and portrait display modes (resolutions) are
supported but they need to be manually switched. By default, ME253i2 is set to
landscape mode.
Make sure to change the display mode (switch EDIDs) to use ME253i2 in portrait
orientation according to the display user manual.
The currently used display orientation on ME253i2 can be found out by counting how
many times the LED blinks upon turn-on with the DVI cable being disconnected. See the
table below.
Display mode LED behavior upon turn-on
Portrait
The LED blinks just once.
Landscape
(Default)
The LED blinks twice.
1
Connect the supplied DVI split cable to the DMS59 connector on the card and tighten
the screws on the connector.
Important: Carefully insert the DMS59 connector of the DVI split cable straight.
Inserting the connector at an angle may cause the connector pins to bend.
2
Connect the DVI cable supplied with the display between the graphics card's DVI
connector and the display and tighten the screws.
Note: This graphics card has two DVI connectors: 1 and 2. Make sure to connect the
rst display to Connector 1.
Do not connect/disconnect the DVI cable while the display is turned on. It could
cause a graphics card failure. Connect/disconnect the DVI cables with the
display disconnected.
