Connecting a Video Monitor
To connect the video monitor, place your monitor on top of or near
the Equity III main unit. It is easiest to connect the monitor cable if the
backs of the monitor and the main unit face you.
Note: Your dealer probably installed a video card in your main unit to
control your monitor. If not, you need to install it before you can
connect your monitor. See Chapter 4 for instructions on how to
remove the main unit’s cover and install an option card. You also
need to check DIP switch 1-2 inside the main unit to be sure it
matches your monitor. See “Setting the DIP Switches” in Chapter 4.
The procedure you use to connect your monitor to the main unit
depends on the type of monitor you have. Refer to your monitor manual
for detailed instructions or follow these general guidelines:
1.
If necessary, connect the monitor cable to the monitor. (Some moni-
tors come with permanently attached cables.)
2.
Connect the appropriate end of the monitor cable to your mono-
chrome or color/graphics card connector at the back of the main
unit, as shown in Figure 1-5. If the plug has retaining screws, tighten
them with a screwdriver.
