Installing an expansion card

If you purchased an expansion card for your server, install it now (see
“Installing an Expansion Card” in Chapter 3 for instructions). If you don’t
have an expansion card, go on to the next section, “Connecting a Monitor.”

Connecting a monitor

Your server has one high-density monitor port that accepts a monitor with a
screen 16 inches or smaller (measured diagonally).

Note: You can use a larger monitor by installing a monitor card. See
“Installing an Expansion Card” in Chapter 3.

You can connect many types of monitors to your server, including:

m Most standard monitors. See the Technical Information booklet that came

with your server for a more detailed list. To connect a standard monitor, you
must use the monitor cable adapter supplied with your server.

m Apple AudioVision monitors. AudioVision monitors include built-in

speakers, a microphone, video, and an Apple Desktop Bus (ADB) port
(for an input device such as a keyboard).

This section contains instructions for connecting either kind of monitor. To
connect a monitor from a manufacturer other than Apple, refer also to the
instructions that came with the monitor.

Connecting the monitor’s power cord

Monitors have two cords to connect: a power cord and a monitor cable. To
connect the monitor power cord:

1

Place the monitor on top of or next to the server.

Keep in mind these considerations:

m Allow a few inches for air circulation around the server and monitor.
m Make sure the top of the screen is slightly below eye level when you’re

sitting at the keyboard.

m Position the monitor to minimize glare and reflections on the screen from

overhead lights and windows.
