CONNECTORS
Connect to a monitor with a VGA or DVI port (the type of connection 
supported depends on your computer’s configuration). The 
appropriate cable is usually included with the monitor. 
Follow these steps to connect an monitor to your computer:
1. Check that the computer is powered off and the monitor power 
switch is turned off.
2. Attach the video cable to the monitor port on the computer. Secure 
the cable connection with the screws provided.
3. Connect the monitor power cable and plug it into a properly 
grounded wall outlet.
4. Follow any setup instructions in the monitor's user's guide.
5. Turn on power to the monitor, then the computer.
6. Make sure that the current resolution and refresh rate do not exceed 
the specifications of the monitor. If necessary change the display 
settings used by the computer.
Headphones and microphone
These ports allow you to connect audio devices. Use the headphone 
port to plug in stereo headphones or powered speakers. Plugging an 
audio device to the headphone port disables the built-in speakers. 
Use the microphone port to connect an external microphone for mono 
recording; plugging in an external microphone disables the built-in 
microphone.
Note
To access the display controls, press the Windows key (
) + W, type 
"Display" and then click on Display.
Note
Some computers have a single "combo" port that allows you to use single-pin 
headsets with a built-in microphone. These headsets are most commonly 
used with smartphones.
