Quick Installation
To get connected quickly, follow the Quick Installation instructions below. For more information on
connections to the VP180m see page 5. For information on the wall mount, see page 6. Contact
ViewSonic or your dealer for an optional Wall Mounting Kit.
1 Connect video cable
Make sure both the ViewPanel
computer are powered OFF.
Depending on the signal coming from your
computer, connect one of the video cables
(VGA or DVI) that came with your
VP180m to the back of your computer.
Connect the other end of the cable to the
analog and/or the Digital Video Interface
(DVI) input on the back of the display to
correspond with the signal of your
computer(s). If you have both analog and
digital inputs, see Input Select in Using the
ViewPanel in this guide to toggle between
the two ports.
Macintosh users: Models older than G3
may require a Macintosh adapter. Attach
the adapter to the computer and plug the
video cable into the adapter.
To order a ViewSonic
contact ViewSonic Customer Support.
2 Connect power cord and AC/DC
adapter
Connect the power and AC/DC adapter
from the ViewPanel to a properly grounded
AC outlet.
3 Power-ON ViewPanel and

Power-ON the ViewPanel, then power-ON
the computer. This sequence (ViewPanel
before computer) is very important.
