To operate the dongle, plug it directly into the monitor side VGA port and turn in on. Press the MODE button to cycle through the available video modes, and TEST to cycle through the tests.
The tester itself will only plug into the female DB-15 jack on the back of your monitor. In order to use a typical VGA cable (male ends), you will need the optional gender changer which you can order with the tester.
