To control this monitor from a computer via a communication, connect this monitor and the computer using an RS-232C cable
(commercially available).
How to connect
• Turn off the main power switch of the computer and this monitor. If you make a connection while the power is on, it causes a
failure of the devices.
• Connect the computer and this monitor using a reverse type RS-232C cable (commercially available).
• In addition, when you connect two or more monitors as shown in the illustration below, connect the RS-232C OUT connector
of the fi rst monitor and the RS-232C IN connector of the second monitor using a reverse type RS-232C cable (commercially
available). By repeating the connection in the similar way, you can connect monitors in a daisy chain confi guration.

installation environment.
