How do I connect my Eizo CS2420 to iMac 2020?

I am trying to connect my external monitor - Eizo CS2420 - to my iMac 2020, Monterey 12.5

The cable is Display port to Thunderbolt 2, I bought a USB-c to Thunderbolt 2 adapter to connect it, but the iMac doesn't recognize the monitor. "No signal" appears on the monitor.

Any ideas?

Trouble connecting Mac Pro Thunderbolt 2 output to monitor's USB-C input Hi, I was told both by Apple and Dell support that I could connect my Mac Pro Late 2013 to a Dell S2722QC monitor by running a Thunderbolt 2 cable from the Mac Pro, connecting it to a Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adaptor, and then connecting that adaptor to the monitor's USB-C port. This, however, does not work: when I do so the monitor says it is receiving no USB-C signal. I have done troubleshooting to rule out the cable, adaptor, Thunderbolt 2 port on the Mac Pro and UBC-C port on the monitor. Does anyone have any solutions for getting this setup to work. Note that I can connect the computer and monitor via HDMI but this does not allow me to use the monitor to its fullest capacity. Thanks in advance for your thoughts! Best, Neil

Connecting 2nd monitor to iMac I had connected an Omen monitor to my iMac as a second screen and it was working well. I just updated to Monetary 12.5.1 and now the iMac is not recognizing the connection any longer. I'm using a Display Port to USB-C cable, which was working very well -- up until this more recent Apple update. Any suggestions how to get the second monitor connected would be appreciated!!

I’ve checked the specifications online and I see the display also has an HDMI port so I suggest getting a simple usb-c (male) HDM (female) adapter. Plug this into your iMac usb-c port and connect the adapter to your display with an HDMI cable. Something like this.
