Connecting External Devices
CAUTION: Before performing any of the procedures in this section, follow the safety instructions in the
Product Information Guide.
You must complete all steps to properly set up your computer. See the appropriate figures that
follow the instructions.
1
Use the USB connectors on the back of your computer to connect the keyboard and mouse.
2
Connect the modem or network cable.
NOTICE: To connect a network cable, first plug the cable in to the network wall jack, and then in to the
computer.
Insert the network cable, not the phone line, into the network connector. If you have an
optional modem, connect the phone line to the modem.
NOTICE: Do not connect a modem cable to the network adapter. Voltage from telephone
communications can cause damage to the network adapter.

Connect the monitor.
Align and gently insert the monitor cable to avoid bending connector pins. Tighten the
thumbscrews on the cable connectors.
NOTE: Some monitors have the video connector underneath the back of the screen. See the
documentation that came with your monitor for its connector locations.
