Introduction
This manual tells you how to connect, adjust and care for your monitor. This manual also
provides technical specifications and instructions for troubleshooting problems you may
experience with your monitor.
Monitor features
The Diamond monitor is an intelligent, microprocessor-based monitor compatible with
®
most analog RGB (red, green, blue) display standards, including PS/V
Macintosh®, Centris, Quadra, Macintosh II and Power Macintosh products.
It provides crisp text and vivid color graphics with VGA, SVGA, XGA (non-interlaced), and
most Macintosh compatible color graphics boards.
, PS/2®, Apple
®
The monitor’s wide auto-scanning compatibility range makes it possible to upgrade
쮿
graphics boards or software without needing to purchase a new monitor.
Digitally controlled auto-scanning is done using an internal microprocessor, for
쮿
horizontal scan frequencies between 30kHz and 121kHz, and vertical scan frequencies between 50Hz and 160Hz. The microprocessor-based intelligence allows the
monitor to operate in each frequency mode with the precision of a fixed frequency
monitor.
The monitor contains resident memory for pre-programmed screen display stan-
쮿
dards and is also capable of storing additional user adjustment parameters.
The monitor is capable of producing a non-interlaced maximum addressable resolu-
쮿
tion format of 1800 dots x 1440 lines. This display is well suited for windowing environments.
Because of the analog signal inputs, the monitor can display an unlimited palette of
쮿
colors that can be manually adjusted to suit your specific needs.
TM
The monitor has a power management function according to VESA
쮿
dard. To save energy, the monitor must be connected to a system compliant with
this standard. (Refer to your computer and/or graphics board instructions for proper
operation.)

To ensure the easy installation and operation of this monitor, an on-screen display

The USB function under Windows
What does USB stand for?
USB stands for “Universal Serial Bus“ and defines a new interface standard which is
clearly more convenient for the PC user. This increased convenience concerns the connection and configuration of peripheral devices. Up to 127 peripherals such as keyboard,
mouse, modem removable drives and digital cameras for videoconferencing can be connected to a USB system. With USB, each peripheral device is configured automatically.
supports USB and is provided with special software. In this chapter
The USB standard defines an uniform connector type, making special cables, proprietary
connectors and interfaces and special installation software unnecessary. This eliminates
the all-too-familiar cable spaghetti that can result and the risk of hardware damage due
to an incorrect connection. The fact that all the devices can be connected to each
other—similar to a network—is also a great advantage. It means a high degree of flexibility when planning the layout of the devices: Not all peripheral devices have to be connected centrally to the computer.
Who can use USB?
The USB function is available to you if your hardware and operating system support USB.
In this case, it is the Windows system that checks the hardware, sets up the USB and
controls the attached devices.
USB support is already integrated in Windows 98. This may be different with older versions of Windows 95, as not all versions support USB.
