1-6 Connecting Optional Equipment
• A
very
high-resolution, accelerated graphics
board
may
require
a special high-bandwidth monitor
with
separate
red, green,
and
blue
BNC
input
connectors.
• A genlock, RF modulator,
or
other
video
related
device allows
you
to
use
an
ordinary
television or a composite video
monitor
for
certain
display modes. Such devices
may
have
an
F (coaxial)
connector,
antenna
leads, RCAjacks,
and/or
BNC connectors.
See
the
documentation for
your
graphics
expansion
hardware
and
your
monitor
for specific information
about
making
the
proper
connections. Your
dealer
can
help you choose
the
right
combination
of
graphics
hardware,
monitor,
and
monitor cable or
adapter
for
your
use.
If
you
have
no optional
equipment

Power
connection
is
always
the
final step.
