connector) and the Analog(blue connector) cables from the back of computer.
3. Turn on the monitor.

monitor cannot sense a video signal and is working correctly. While in self-test mode, the power LED remains
green. Also, depending upon the selected input, one of the dialogs shown below will continuously scroll through
the screen.
