Step 3 - Connecting the Monitor
Once the LX1200TI is mounted in place, connect it to the computer (or other 
video source) and the 12 VDC power supply as follows.
 
 
 
1.  As needed, route any data and power cables from the computer to the 
  
monitor.
 
2.  Make sure the computer is turned off .
 
3.  Connect the 12 VDC power supply cable to the monitor’s power supply.
 
 
4.  Connect the power supply and power interrupt cables (for the 
 
  All-in-One power switch, if your computer or docking station is so 
 
  equipped) to the connectors on the bottom of the monitor. See the 
 
  following diagram for connector locations. 
Note:  This procedure refers to connections to and from the computer. 
 
However, depending on your particular hardware confi guration, these 
 
connections may be to a dock or other device rather than directly to 
 the 
computer.
Note:  Use a 5-Amp fuse in line to the power source.
 
Also, to prevent vehicle battery from draining, you should install a 
 
device that shuts off  power to the monitor while the monitor is 
 
inactive. (An example is Lind Electronic’s Vehicle Battery Voltage 
 
Shutdown Timer - www.lindeletronic.com).
