Connecting an External Monitor
WARNING Do not use a peripheral device, such as a monitor, VCR or printer
within 1.5 meters of a patient unless the device receives power
from an isolation transformer that meets medical safety stan-
dards.
The Cypress system can be connected to a VGA-compatible monitor. The 15-
pin high-density “D” type connector on the I/O panel connects directly to a VGA
monitor through a standard VGA cable.
To connect an external monitor to the Cypress system, follow these steps:
1. Make sure Cypress system and monitor are turned OFF.
2. Connect the monitor cable to the 15-pin connector on the Cypress system
(see Figure 54).
3. Connect the power cord on the monitor and plug it in.
4. Turn the Cypress system ON and then turn the monitor ON.
5. On the Cypress system, press the SETUP function key to display the Setup
tab.
6. Use the Video Out Mode drop-down menu to select VGA.
7. Press SETUP to return to 2D mode or press 2D to begin imaging.
