Connecting to Other Computers
To connect your monitor to a generic computer running MS-DOS or
Windows, complete the following steps:
1
Connect the 15-pin video cable to the Analog Video Input port at the
left side of the monitor and to the 15-pin video port on your
computer, see Figure 3-1 : Communication Ports on the Monitor on
page 3-1.
2
Connect the 9-pin touchscreen cable to the Touchscreen port on the
monitor and to the 9-pin serial port on your computer to use for
touchscreen communications.
Starting Up
Once you have connected your monitor to the non-display PowerStation or
to another computer, you are ready to start your system.
However, before connecting power to your unit, make sure that you have
read and understood the electrical and testing specifications described in
Appendix A , Monitor Specifications. Also, make sure that you follow the
guidelines listed below:
•
For permanently connected equipment
,
a readily accessible
disconnect device must be incorporated in the fixed wiring.
•
For pluggable equipment, the socket-outlet must be installed near
the equipment and should be easily accessible.
Important
Proper installation of the monitor for use in European Union
countries requires the use of a harmonized power cord. (The
power cord must be identified with the <HAR> symbol.)
Make sure that the monitor is only connected to the main
supply with a harmonized power cord.
