Connecting the monitor

To connect the monitor:

1 Position your computer and the monitor so you can reach the back of each.
2 Connect the power cord to the power connector under the back of the
monitor.
3 Connect the blue VGA video cable to the blue video connector under the
back of the monitor.
- OR -
If your computer has a digital video connector (DVI), connect a DVI video cable (not included) to the white connector under the back of the monitor. You can buy a DVI video cable from www.gateway.com

Adjusting monitor height tension

The stand is factory adjusted to maintain the adjusted height for Gateway 17-inch and 19-inch flat-panel monitors. If you use this stand with a lighter monitor without adjusting the weight setting of the stand, the stand will raise your monitor, and if you use a heavier monitor, the stand will lower your monitor.

To test and adjust your monitor’s height tension:
1 Mov e you r monit or up and dow n thro ugh it s enti re ve rt ical range . If it does
not stay in place when you let go, you need to change the adjustable stand’s height tension. You also need to adjust the stand if the amounts of force required to raise and lower the monitor are not equal.
2 Adjust the height tension screw so the monitor stays in place when you
let go. If the monitor lowers by itself when you let go, turn the screw clockwise several complete turns. If the monitor rises when you let go, turn the screw counter-clockwise several complete turns. You may need to turn the screw several times before the tension is correct for your monitor.

3 Adjust the height tension screw so raising and lowering forces are equal.
After the forces are equalized, turn the tension screw clockwise 2 to 4 turns to slightly decrease the lifting tension.
4 For optimum viewing, adjust the height so the top of monitor is about
1 inch below eye level.

Adjusting tilt (vertical viewing angle) tension

To test and adjust tilt tension:
1 Tilt the monitor back and forth through its entire tilt range. If it does not
stay in place or if movement in one direction is stiff, the tilt tension needs adjustment.
2 Pull the black rubber cover away from the top of the stand, then hold it
back with one hand.
Increase tilt tension (clockwise)
Decrease tilt tension (counter -clockwise)
3 To increase tilt tension, turn the screw clockwise with a Phillips
screwdriver. To decrease tilt tension, turn the screw counter-clockwise. Adjust until the monitor stays in place and the up and down tilting tensions are equal.

Ergonomic guidelines

Adjusting the stand
The recommended mounting heights, the range of adjustability required to provide comfortable use by a range of users, and the forces required for making adjustments to the monitor are based upon the following guildelines. These guidelines are based on available scientific literature and published standards.
Screen height
The recommended screen height for monitors (except in special circumstances, such as for bifocal use) is that the top of the monitor should be set at or slightly below (about 1 inch, or 25 mm) the user’s eye level while the user is sitting in a comfortable working posture. This guideline places the center of the screen at an ideal 15° to 20° viewing angle for most desktop monitors. If the monitor has multiple users, the screen height should be easily adjustable to accommodate each user’s height and preference.
Screen tilt
The screen should be tilted so the user’s line of sight is perpendicular to the screen. This angle creates the most consistent viewing distance when scanning from the top of the screen to the bottom. You may need to adjust lighting to avoid screen glare when the screen is tilted upward.
Screen distance from user
The monitor screen should first be placed at arms length from the user, then adjusted back and forth to suit individual preference. Vertical adjustments should not result in a change in viewing distance.
Stand adjustment forces
The force required to make any adjustment to the stand (height, tilt, pan, or portrait/landscape orientation) should not exceed 5.1 lbs. (2.32 kg).

2 Turn on your computer.
After your computer is running, the power LED on the monitor’s power button should be blue. Allow about 10 seconds for the monitor image to appear. If the power LED is not blue or you do not see a monitor image, check the connections. For more troubleshooting information, see “Troubleshooting” on page 18.
3 Adjust the tilt of the monitor for the best viewing angle.
4 After you see the Windows desktop, press the Auto button on the right
side of the monitor to automatically adjust your monitor image to the ideal settings.

Color depth is the number of colors your video card uses. Most images look best
displayed with the maximum number of colors available.
Windows lets you choose from several color depth settings for the monitor. We
recommend that you use the 32-bit True Color setting or the highest setting
available at all times.
If the color in your images seems “false” or “jumpy,” especially after you have
played a game or run a video-intensive program, check the color depth setting
and return it to 32-bit True Color, if necessary.
To change the color depth:
1 Click Start, then click Control Panel. The Control Panel window opens. If

Energy declaration

When connected to a computer that supports the VESA Display Power Management Signaling (DPMS) Protocol, the monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power consumption during periods of non-use. When your computer goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor will then enter the Active Off mode (sleep). In the Active Off mode the Power LED will still show orange.
Use these conventions and the power can be reduced to the following levels:
VESA State LED Indicator Power
Consumption
On Blue 17-inch: 37 W
19-inch: 37 W
Active Off Orange 2 W
To “wake” the monitor when it is in Active Off mode, move the mouse or press any keyboard key.
Access the power management options in the Control Panel to change the period of time after which the monitor enters these low power states.

The monitor has pixels that are always dark or too bright

This condition is normal and inherent in the TFT technology used in
active-matrix LCD screens. Gateway’s inspection standards keep these to a minimum. If you feel these pixels are unacceptably numerous or dense on your monitor, contact Gateway Customer Care to identify whether a repair or replacement is justified based on the number of pixels affected.
