Universal Driver Manager
This monitor may require a graphics driver (and/or .INF file) that is
compatible with your computer’s graphics adapter. The CD-ROM
included with this monitor contains an .INF file (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 crosscompatibility 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
Compaq Desktop, Portable, and Workstation Products and the Compaq
World Wide Web site (www.compaq.com).

Information Files
The CD-ROM included with this monitor contains two information files
that should be installed onto your computer—an .INF file and an .ICM
file. The .INF file defines monitor resources and provides specifications
used by Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows 98 to install support
software for certain hardware devices. The .INF file ensures monitor
compatibility and optimization with your computer’s graphics adapter.
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 your computer's CD drive and select the software from
the menu that displays on your monitor screen. INF file updates are
downloadable by clicking on:

degauss, the monitor corrects color impurities on the screen
without bringing up another menu. Color impurities are usually
caused by moving or rotating the monitor or by external magnetic fields. The monitor screen automatically degausses when
the monitor is turned on. After the degauss selection has been
used, there is a 20-minute delay until the degauss circuitry is
restored and the degauss function can be used at full strength
again.

Adjusting Picture Quality
Allow the monitor to warm up for 30 minutes before performing the
following procedures. The picture image stabilizes after a warm-up
period.
Optimizing 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. 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,

Maximum Refresh Rates
This monitor is capable of the maximum refresh rates listed in the
following table. However, the video adapter installed in your computer
must also be capable of supporting these refresh rates in order for them
to operate. Most of the new video adapters being shipped and sold in
computers today are capable of supporting these calculated refresh rates.
Certain video adapters may provide different timing parameters which
could result in slightly different maximum refresh rates.

User Modes
The video controller signal may occasionally call for a mode that is not
preset if:
You are not using a compatible Compaq video adapter.
■
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 12 preset/preload modes that
can be changed and stored, there are five user modes that can be entered
and stored. When the five user mode settings are exceeded, the newest
setting will replace the setting closest to its own setting. When “Factory
Reset” is selected from the OSD menu, the factory preset values will
replace the saved user settings in operation at the time.
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.

Care and Maintenance
This section explains how to care for and maintain your Compaq
monitor during normal everyday use.
Protecting the Monitor
To protect your monitor from overheating and other types of damage,
follow these suggestions:
Use only a power source and connection appropriate for
■
this monitor, as indicated on the marking label/back plate.
If an extension cord or power strip is used, make sure that the cord
■
or strip is rated for the product and that the total ampere ratings of
all products plugged into the extension cord or power strip do not
exceed 80% of the extension cord or strip ampere ratings limit.
Do not overload an electrical outlet, power strip, or convenience
■
receptacle. The overall system load must not exceed 80% of the
branch circuit rating. If power strips are used, the load should not
exceed 80% of the power strip input rating.
Install the monitor near an outlet that you can easily reach.
■
Disconnect the product by grasping the plug firmly and pulling it
from the outlet. Never disconnect it by pulling the cord.
Unplug the monitor from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not
■
use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation.
■
These openings must not be blocked or covered. Never push
objects of any kind into cabinet slots or other openings.
Do not place plants on top of the monitor. Water or dirt from the
■
plant may fall into the vents.
Do not drop the monitor or place it on an unstable surface.
■
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not walk on
■
the cord.
Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area, away from excessive
■
light, heat, and moisture. Keep the monitor away from high
capacity transformers, electric motors, and other strong magnetic
fields.
1-12 English
In a two-monitor system, place the monitors as far apart from each
■
other as possible to lessen interference between them.
Do not open the monitor cabinet or attempt to service this product
■
yourself. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the
operating instructions. If the monitor is not operating properly or
has been dropped or damaged, contact your Compaq authorized
dealer, reseller, or service provider.
Cleaning the Monitor
To clean the monitor, follow these steps:
1. Turn off the monitor and the computer.
2. Dust the monitor by wiping the screen and the cabinet with
a soft, clean cloth.
If the screen requires additional cleaning, use any antistatic CRT screen
cleaner.
CAUTION:
Do not use benzene, thinner, ammonia, or any
volatile substance to clean the monitor screen or cabinet. These
chemicals may damage the monitor screen and cabinet finish
.
Shipping the Monitor
Keep the original packing box in a storage area. You may need it later if
you move or ship your monitor.

Power Cord Set Requirements
The monitor power supply is provided with Automatic Line Switching
(ALS). This feature allows the monitor to operate on input voltages
between 100-120V or 200-240V.
The power cord set (flexible cord or wall plug) received with the
monitor meets the requirements for use in the country where you
purchased the equipment.
If you need to obtain a power cord for a different country, you should
purchase a power cord that is approved for use in that country.
The power cord must be rated for the product and for the voltage and
current marked on the product's electrical ratings label. The voltage and
current rating of the cord should be greater than the voltage and current
rating marked on the product. In addition, the diameter of the wire must
be a minimum of 0.75 mm² or 18AWG, and the length of the cord must
be between 6 feet (1.8 m) and 12 feet (3.6 m). If you have questions
about the type of power cord to use, contact your Compaq authorized
service provider.
A power cord should be routed so that it is not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon it or against it. Particular attention should
be paid to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord exits
from the product.
