Overview

Dell Display Manager (DDM) is a Microsoft Windows application used to manage a
monitor or a group of monitors. It allows manual adjustment of the displayed image,
assignment of automatic settings, energy management, window organization,
image rotation, and other features on select Dell monitors. Once installed, Dell
Display Manager runs each time the system starts and places its icon in the
notification tray. Information about monitors connected to the system is available
when hovering over the notification-tray icon.

Alternatively, you may launch DDM by right-clicking
select Dell Display Manager from the desktop menu.

NOTE: Dell Display Manager uses DDC/CI channel to communicate with
your monitor. Ensure DDC/CI is enabled in the menu as below.

Using the Quick Settings Dialog

Clicking Dell Display Manager's notification tray icon opens the Quick Settings
dialog box. When more than one supported Dell monitors are connected to the
computer, a specific target monitor can be selected using the menu. The Quick
Settings dialog box enables you to easily adjust the brightness, contrast, resolution,
window layout, and so on. You can select Manual Mode or Auto Mode, and the
screen resolution can be changed.

The Quick Settings dialog box also provides access to Dell Display Manager's
advanced user interface that is used to adjust basic functions, configure auto mode
and access other features.
