Connecting to a Personal Computer
A. Use a 15-pin monitor cable to connect your TV to a PC. Connect one end of the 15-pin
monitor cable to the VGA jack on the TV and the other end to the PC’s video output.
Note, if your PC’s video output is not 15 pin, you will need an adapter that can connect
to a 15-pin monitor cable.
B. Use a 3.5 mm stereo mini pin cable (sometimes referred to as 1/8” stereo mini pin) to
connect the audio. Connect the 3.5 mm end of the audio cable to the VGA AUDIO jack
on the back of the TV. Connect the other end to the Audio Output jack on the PC.
Notes:
The maximum panel resolution is 1366 x 768. Be sure to set your PC to the
correct monitor output setting.
The MultiTask Audio™ feature allows you to listen to the sound from the TV while the PC
