Getting Started: Quickly Learning the Basics

Connecting to a Monitor

Depending on your thin client model, connections to monitors can be made using
either a VGA (analog) monitor port, a DVI (digital) monitor port, or a DisplayPort (digital)
and the proper Dell monitor cables/splitters/adapters. For information on configuring
