In a cable matching method and a monitor for performing the method, one of several video connection ports and one of several communication connection ports are selected. It is then determined whether the video cable connected to the selected video connection port matches the serial communication cable connected to the selected communication connection port. The other of the communication connection ports is selected if it is determined that the video cable connected to the selected video connection port does not match the serial communication cable connected to the selected communication connection port. Matching information representing the matching relationship between the video cables and the serial communication cables is obtained after the other communication connection port is selected, or if it is determined that the video cable connected to the selected video connection port does match the serial communication cable connected to the selected communication connection port. The term "matching" denotes the connection of the video cable and the serial communication cable to the same video input source. The monitor displays a picture corresponding to a video signal received via the selected video connection port, and a communication connection port, to which the serial communication cable that matches the video cable connected to the selected video connection port is connected, is connected to a manipulator operable by a user. In this way, an environment for easy and effective use of two video input sources can be easily established.
