Connect the Cables

Use only the cables and power cord supplied with the Q2 display.
To connect the display

(See sidebar for how to thread the DVI cable and power cord on the stand.)
2 Plug one end of the video signal cable to the DVI port on the display.

Installation tips
Easy access to ports
For displays mounted on a desk
stand, rotate the screen from
landscape to portrait for easy access
to the ports. If you need to place
your display face down, lower it
carefully on a protective cloth to
protect the screen.
Threading cables
Thread the cables and power cord
through the back of the stand. Make
sure the cables run through the
notches. To reattach the stand cover
correctly, align the hooks with the
slots on the stand. Press the cover
into place. A click sound signals
a secure connection.
Restarting
Turn on your display before you turn
on your computer. Failing to do so
could damage the display.
