Universal Driver Manager
This monitor may require a graphics driver (and/or .INF file) that is
compatible with your computer’s graphics adapter. A CD-ROM
containing an .INF file is included with this monitor (see the section on
Information Files). Compaq has also created a Universal Driver Manager
(UDM) release that supports all graphics adapters found on Compaq
Deskpro and Compaq Workstation products. The UDM eases graphics
driver deployment across Compaq platforms ensuring cross-compatibility
and backward-compatibility. The resulting solution enables customers to
manage and control ongoing software maintenance costs. The UDM is
available on the Compaq Support Software CD for Compaq Desktop,
Portable, and Workstation Products and the Compaq Web site:
http://www.compaq.com
Information Files
This monitor includes a CD-ROM with two information files that should
be installed onto your computer—an .INF file and an .ICM file.
n The .INF file defines monitor resources and provides specifications
used by Microsoft Windows 95/98 to install support software for
certain hardware devices. The .INF file ensures monitor
compatibility and optimization with your computer’s graphics
adapter. The CD-ROM is located in the Program License
Agreement packet. INF file updates are downloadable by clicking
on: http://www.compaq.com/products/monitors/index.html
n The .ICM file provides color matching consistency from monitor
screen to printer and is activated from within the graphics programs
that have this feature.
To install these files on your computer, insert the Compaq CD-ROM into
the computer's CD tray and follow the instructions from the menu that
appears on the monitor screen.
Setting Up the Monitor
To set up the monitor, ensure that the power is turned off to the monitor,
computer system, and other attached devices, then follow these steps:
1. Place the monitor in a convenient, well-ventilated location.
Compaq Deskpro and Compaq Workstation computers are capable
of supporting this monitor, but otherwise you must place the
monitor near, but not on top of, your computer.

Adjusting Screen Quality
✎
Allow the monitor to warm up for 30 minutes before performing the
following procedures. The screen image stabilizes after a warm-up
period.
Optimizing Brightness and Contrast
For best results, set your screen to a dark background (such as the DOS
prompt) before adjusting the following settings:
1. Set the brightness and contrast controls to their lowest settings.
2. Increase brightness until the background portions of the screen are
visible, then slowly reduce brightness until the background is just
extinguished.
3. With a video image present, adjust contrast control to your
preference.
Optimizing Focus
The default image size is preset at the factory. The Size and Position
controls in the on-screen display can be used to increase the screen size
beyond the default setting. However, expanding the screen image beyond
the default settings may degrade the focus at the outer edge of the screen.
To enhance focus, use the lowest brightness level that gives satisfactory
results in your viewing environment.
Settings that maximize contrast may not offer optimum focus, and
settings that maximize focus may not offer optimum contrast.

User Modes
The video controller signal may occasionally call for a mode that is not
preset if:
n You are not using a Compaq standard graphics adapter.
n You are not using a preset mode.
If this occurs, you may need to readjust the parameters of the monitor
screen by using the on-screen display. User changes can be made to any
or all of these modes and saved in memory. The monitor automatically
stores the new setting, then automatically recognizes the new mode just
as it does a preset mode. In addition to the 22 preset modes that can be
changed and stored, there are 14 user modes that can be entered and
stored.
To revert back to the factory default settings, select Reset from the
Factory Reset menu in the on-screen display, and the factory default
resolutions will replace the user changes made for the operating original
display mode.
