• Ensure that the power cable is fully inserted in the monitor’s power port and the electrical outlet.
• Test the electrical outlet by plugging in a working electrical device such as a lamp.
• Ensure that the power button has been depressed, and wait for the power indicator to light.
• Try another power cable on the monitor. Use the computer’s power cable and turn on the monitor with the
signal cable disconnected. If the monitor is working correctly, a self-test pattern appears.
