Apple AppleVision 750 - Manual (Page 14)

IMPORTANT The ADB connector is not optional; it’s needed for your
Mac OS–based computer to work correctly with your monitor. If not
connected properly, extended resolutions and AppleVision software controls
will not be available.
If you have only one ADB port on the back of your computer and you’re
already using it for your keyboard and mouse, unplug the keyboard and
mouse and connect them directly to your AppleVision monitor. For more
information, see “Connecting a Mac OS–Based Computer Keyboard and
Mouse to Your Monitor” later in this chapter.
IMPORTANT When connecting ADB cables, be sure to align the symbol
V on
the connector with the same symbol on the port. If you force a connector the
wrong way, you will damage it.
Connecting the monitor cable to various video connectors
To connect the monitor to a high-density port (45-pin port) instead of a
standard monitor port (15-pin port), you need to use an adapter. This
adapter is usually provided with your computer. If you don’t have one, you
can purchase an adapter (Apple part number M2681LL/A) from an Apple-
authorized dealer.

WARNING Make sure you don’t plug the ADB connector into an S-video
port (marked by
æ or Æ) by mistake. The ports are the same size, and
it’s easy to mistake one for the other. It may cause electrical damage to
your computer or monitor.
