Screen position adjustment
In order to optimize the best viewing position, you can adjust the monitor tilt of the monitor
by using both of your hands to hold the edges of the monitor as shown in the figure below.
The monitor can be adjusted to 10 degrees or 90 degrees up as indicated by arrow below.

Connecting the power cord
•Check first to make sure that the power cord you use is the correct type
required for your area.
•The monitor has a universal power supply that allows operation in either
100/120 V AC or 220/240 V AC voltage area. No user-adjustment is
required.
•Plug one end of the power cord to the AC inlet, and plug the other end
into an AC outlet.
•For units using 120 V AC:
Use a UL-listed cord set, type SVT wire and plug rated 10 A/125 V.
•For units using 220/240 V AC:
Use a cord set consisting of H05VV-F cord and plug rated 10 A/250 V. The
cord set should have the appropriate safety approvals for the country in
which the equipment will be installed.
Power saving
The monitor will be switched to "power saving" mode by the control signal
from the display controller, as indicated by the amber-colored power LED.
ModeLED light
OnBlue
Power saving Amber
3
The power saving mode will be kept until a control signal has been detected or
the keyboard or mouse is activated. The recovery time from "power saving"
mode back to "on" is around 3 seconds.
Display Data Channel (DDC)
To make installation easier, so long as your system supports the DDC protocol,
the monitor is able to plug-and-play. The DDC is a communication protocol
through which the monitor automatically informs the host system about its
capabilities; for example, supported resolutions and corresponding timing. The
monitor supports the DDC2B standard.

MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) (Only for MHL-input Models)
Mobile High-Definition Link is a digital interface for transmitting video and audio from
an external portable device. It is also capable of charging a portable device
(5 V @ 900 mA).
Connecting the devices
Plug the MHL-certified cable into the display's HDMI® (MHL) port and the portable

-out port.
MHL
MHL
Using MHL
MHL-certified portable devices will automatically display content on the monitor,
provided the output display and audio formats are supported by the portable device.
When the portable device is in standby mode, the monitor will show a black screen or
turn to standby mode, depending on the portable device's output signal.
Due to the difference in size and resolution between the monitor and the portable
device, you may find the display quality not as crisp as it appears on the portable device.
This may be due to the portable device changing the output format.
This monitor only receives content from the portable device. It is not capable of
controlling the portable device.
