Question New Monitor Not Being Detected

Laptop is a Dell XPS 13, model 9360. I just purchased a new Dell monitor, model U2415. It came with 2 cables. One is labeled DP V1.2; the other is a miniDP to USB. I also have a HDMI to USB-C. I plugged in the HDMI cable and turned on the monitor, thinking it would automatically be detected by the laptop, (Windows 10). But it isn't and a message on the new monitor says "No DP cable". What am I doing wrong?
 
I didn't. I just plugged in the HDMI cable to the monitor and the USB-C to the laptop. How do I change the input to HDMI?
 
The 3rd button on it takes you to the menu. Choose input source, and pick the right HDMI port (there are 2).
